Reaction Steps

1.2 g (2.64 mmol) of 6-[(2-{[6-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyrazin-4-yl}amino]ethyl)amino]pyridine-3-carbonitrile (Example 42) were suspended in 80 ml of dichloromethane (shaken with water beforehand). 80 ml of 1,2-dimethoxyethane and 40 ml of DMF were then added, and the mixture was cooled to 0° C. 2.46 g (5.81 mmol) of Dess-Martin periodinane were added, ice-bath cooling was removed and the mixture was stirred at RT for 2 h. Ethyl acetate was added, and the mixture was washed first with a 10% strength sodium thiosulfate solution and then with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. Drying of the organic phase with sodium sulfate and removal of the solvent under reduced pressure gave 1.2 g (94% of theory) of the product as a solid which was reacted without further purification.
