Tetrahydrofuran → HCID 178470731, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 1-benzyl-3-benzyloxy-1H-pyrazol-4-ylacetate (14.9 g), 5% palladium-carbon (15.0 g), tetrahydrofuran (150 ml) and ethanol (150 ml) was stirred for 2 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere. After the palladium-carbon was removed by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated to obtain ethyl 1-benzyl-3-hydroxy-1H-pyrazol-4-ylacetate (9.76 g, yield 88%) as colorless crystals. This was recrystallized from tetrahydrofuran-hexane. Melting point: 156–157° C.
