Reaction Steps

1M NaOH (436 μl) was added to a solution of 2-{4-[1-[4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl]-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]phenyl}ethyl acetate (128 mg) in THF (1.5 ml) and MeOH (0.3 ml) under ice bath cooling. The mixture was stirred at 0° C.˜ambient temperature for 2 hours. The mixture was neutralized with 1M HCl (436 μl), and was partitioned between AcOEt and H2O. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by preparative thin layer silica gel chromatography developed by AcOEt/n-hexane=50%. The separated silica gel was extracted with 10% MeOH/CHCl3 and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo to give 2-{4-[1-[4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl]-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]phenyl}ethanol (96.5 mg) as an amorphous powder.
