Procedure

A suspension of ethyl 2-(2-(3-chlorophenyl)-7-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl)acetate (11.5 g, 20.78 mmol), N,N-dimethylaniline (5.04 g, 41.6 mmol) and POCl3 (40 ml, 429 mmol) was heated (120° C. oil bath) for 3 hrs. The reaction was then concentrated in-vacuo and the dark residue taken up in EtOAc (75 mL) and stirred with ice-water (75 mL) for 30 min. The organic layer was washed with water (2×50 mL). The combined aqueous layers were extracted with EtOAc (50 mL) and the combined organic layers washed with brine (50 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to give a brown solid. The crude product was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography, eluting with 10%-30% EtOAc in hexane. Product fractions were pooled and concentrated under reduced pressure, affording the purified product, ethyl 2-(7-chloro-2-(3-chlorophenyl)-3,5-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl)acetate (8.3 g, 20.45 mmol, 98% yield) as an off-white powdery solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 7.87 (t, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 7.74 (dt, J=7.3, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.44-7.36 (m, 2H), 4.21 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 3.89 (s, 2H), 2.62 (s, 3H), 2.52 (s, 3H), 1.28 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H).
