Participants

Reaction Steps

Chloro-t-butyldimethylsilane (1.93 g, 12.8 mmol) was added in one portion to a stirred solution of the pyrazole of Example 1 (3.50 g, 11.6 mmol) and imidazole (1.03 g, 15.1 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (23 ml) at room temperature under nitrogen. The reaction was stirred for 2 days and water (200 ml) was added. The aqueous phase was extracted with diethyl ether (3×200 ml) and the combined organic phases were washed with water (2×50 ml) and brine (2×50 ml), dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with pentane:ethyl acetate (80:20, by volume) to provide the title compound (4.82 g) as a colourless oil.
