Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-[3-[5-chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide (1.00 g, 2.47 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL), Cs2CO3 (970 mg, 2.977 mmol) was added and stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature. Then 2-(chloromethyl)oxirane (2.28 g, 24.64 mmol) was added dropwise at room temperature. The resulting mixture was stirred for 14 hour at room temperature and diluted with ethyl acetate (100 mL), washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (60/40) to give 500 mg (44%) of N-[3-[5-chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide as a light yellow solid. LCMS (Method 24), [M+H]+=461.1, RT=1.30 min.
