Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution of 40% formaldehyde (210 mg) was added to solution of N-[3-[5-chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-[2-(piperidin-4-ylidene)ethyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide (360.00 mg, 0.700 mmol) in methanol (30 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 2.5 h and NaBH3CN (44.02 mg, 0.700 mmol) was added. The resulting solution was stirred at this temperature for 3 h and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a short pad of silica gel eluting with dichloromethane/MeOH (10/1). The crude product (60 mg) was purified by Flash-Prep-HPLC with the following conditions (IntelFlash-1): Column, silica gel; mobile phase, ACN/10 mmol NH4HCO3=40% increasing to ACN/10 mmol NH4HCO3=75% within 6 min; Detector, UV 254 nm to obtain 4.3 mg (1%) of N-[3-[5-chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-[2-(1-methylpiperidin-4-ylidene)ethyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide as a light yellow solid. LCMS (Method 32): [M+H]+=528.1, RT=2.21 min. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: (ppm) 9.73 (s, 1H), 9.34 (dd, 1H, J=1.6, 6.8 Hz), 8.68-8.66 (m, 2H), 8.32 (s, 1H), 7.67-7.61 (m, 2H), 7.45 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 7.28 (dd, 1H, J=4.0, 6.8 Hz), 7.06 (t, 1H, J=73.2 Hz), 5.44 (t, 1H, J=6.8 Hz), 4.27 (d, 2H, J=6.8 Hz), 2.81-2.68 (m, 2H), 2.52-2.50 (m, 2H), 2.50-2.42 (m, 2H), 2.19 (s, 3H), 2.12-2.04 (m, 2H).
