Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (60%, oily, 150 mg) was added to a solution of 1-[4-(2-phenyl-4-thiazolylmethoxy)benzyl]-3-(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1.54 g) and ethyl diethylphosphonoacetate (0.82 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (15 ml) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed successively with dilute hydrochloric acid and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain ethyl(E)-3-[1-[4-(2-phenyl-4-thiazolylmethoxy)benzyl]-3-(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]propenoate (1.65 g, yield: 93%) as colorless crystals from the fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1: 2, volume ratio). This was recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane. Melting point: 104˜105° C.
