Methyl iodide → ethyl 7-methoxy-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-1H-indazole-5-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of ethyl 7-hydroxy-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-1H-indazole-5-carboxylate (WO2009144554) (100 mg, 0.34 mmol) and potassium carbonate (95.1 mg, 0.68 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL) was added methyl iodide (32 μL, 0.51 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (4×). The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give the title compound (105 mg, 100%) as a yellow oil. +ESI (M+1-THP) 221.2; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, δ): 8.07-8.10 (m, 2H), 7.43 (d, J=0.98 Hz, 1H), 6.24 (dd, J=10.24, 2.44 Hz, 1H), 4.38 (q, J=7.15 Hz, 2H), 4.08 (dt, J=11.56, 2.02 Hz, 1H), 4.04 (s, 3H), 3.70-3.78 (m, 1H), 2.54-2.66 (m, 1H), 2.09-2.19 (m, 1H), 2.01-2.08 (m, 1H), 1.71-1.83 (m, 2H), 1.55-1.64 (m, 1H), 1.41 (t, J=7.12 Hz, 3H).
