Procedure

To a solution of 7-chloro-5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (4.0 g, 12.0 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphin)palladium (1.15 g, 1.0 mmol) in THF (20 mL) was added at 20° C. 0.25 M cyclopropylzinc chloride/THF suspension (ca.192 mL, 48 mol; freshly prepared by stirring a mixture of 96 mL of 0.5 M cyclopropylmagnesium bromide/THF and 96 mL of 0.5 M zinc chloride/THF (96 mL) for 1 h at 0° C. followed by 1 h at 20° C.) and the mixture was refluxed in an atmosphere of argon for 2.5 h. After the slow addition at 0° C. of sat. aqueous ammonium chloride solution (30 mL), the mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and 10% sodium chloride solution. The organic layer was evaporated in vacuo and the residue chromatographed on silica gel using ethyl acetate/cyclohexane (1:4 v/v) as eluent to give after crystallization from ethyl acetate ethyl 5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-7-cyclopropyl-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid (2.54 g, 62%) as an off-white solid, mp 141-143° C. This material was saponified using in an analogous manner the procedure described in example C.22, step d), to give the title compound. Off-white solid, MS (ISN) 312.3 [(M−H)−]; mp 242-243° C.
