Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.50 g (2.87 mmol) 3-ethyl-1H-indazole-5-carbaldehyde (Example 6A), 0.33 g (3.16 mmol) sodium (1Z)-1-cyanoprop-1-en-2-olate, 0.21 ml (3.6 mmol) acetic acid and 0.028 ml (0.29 mmol) piperidine in dry dichloromethane (25 ml) containing 4 Å molecular sieve was stirred under reflux for 16 h. Upon cooling, a precipitate was formed which was collected by filtration and washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and water. The solid was dissolved in ethanol, and the molecular sieve was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was treated with ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution. The organic layer was washed with water, dried, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the title compound (0.60 g, 88% of th.) as a pale yellow solid which was used in subsequent steps without further purification.
