Reaction Steps

To a solution of trans-3-[2-(2-hydroxycyclohexyl)-3-oxo-2,3-dihydropyridazin-6-yl]-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyridine (157 ng) in 20 ml of dichloromethane was added pyridium dichromate (307 mg) and molecular sieves 4A (144 mg) at 50° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature for 28.5 hours. Insoluble material was filtered off using celite and the filtrate was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid (10 ml), saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (10 ml), and brine (10 ml), dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (2 g) eluted with a mixture of dichloromethaneand ethyl acetate (4:1) to give 3-[2-(2-oxocyclohexyl)-3-oxo-2,3-dihydropyridazin-6-yl]-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (116.5 mg). The nmr spectrum for this compound was identical with that of the authentic sample prepared by the method described in Example 2.
