Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 186 mg (0.50 mmol) of 5-amino-3-trifluoromethyl-1-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)pyrazole-4-carboxamide in 6 mL of absolute ethanol was added 555 mg (3.0 mmol) of 3-methoxyphenylacetyl chloride followed by 2.26 mL (6.0 mmol) of 2.66 M sodium ethoxide in ethanol. The solution was stirred 23 h at reflux, and the heating mantle was then removed. The reaction was treated with 10 mL of 10% aq. HOAc, cooled to ambient temperature, and filtered. The filtrate was washed with 6 mL of 1:1 water-methanol then 6 mL of 1:3 ether-hexanes. The off-white solid was briefly air-dried to give 230 mg (91%) of 1-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-3-trifluoromethyl-6-(3-methoxybenzyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one. Mass spec.: 503(M+H)+.
