Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-[1-(2-methoxycarbonylethyl)-3-cyano-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-5-yl]-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (0.46 g) and potassium carbonate (0.92 g) in 80% aqueous ethanol (4.6 ml) was stirred for 6 hours at 80° C. The mixture was acidified with 5% hydrochloric acid (pH≈2). The resultant precipitates were collected by filtration, washed with water (10 ml), and subjected to a column chromatography on silica gel (10 g) with a mixture of chloroform, methanol and acetic acid (40:4:1). The fractions containing the object compound were combined and evaporated in vacuo to give 3-[1-(2-carboxyethyl)-3-cyano-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-5-yl]-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (0.40 g).
