Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 1-cyclopentyl-3-methylthio-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate (3.0 g, 0.012 mol), 4-pyridine carboxamidine hydrochloride (1.9 g, 0.012 mol), potassium carbonate (1.6 g, 0.012 mol) and DMF (25 ml) were refluxed for 4 hours. Additional 4-pyridinecarboxamidine hydrochloride (1.9 g) and potassium carbonate (1.6 g) were added and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 24 hours. The solution was poured into ice-water, neutralized with acetic acid and the resulting precipitate was collected by filtration and washed with water. Recrystallization of the solid from DMF afforded 0.48 g (12%) of 1-cyclopentyl-3-methylthio-6-(4-pyridyl)-pyrazolo[3,4-d]-pyrimidin-4-one as a white powder, m.p. 272°-274° C. when dried at 110° C. for 16 hours in high vacuum.
