1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carbaldehyde → 1-[1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-propan-1-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a chilled (−40° C.) solution of 1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carbaldehyde (1.50 g, 5.99 mmol) in THF was added a 2 M solution of ethylmagnesium chloride (3.00 mL, 6.00 mmol) in THF. After 3 hours, the mixture was diluted with saturated aqueous ammonia chloride and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and the concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by reversed-phase HPLC. The major fractions were combined and the solvent was concentrated in vacuo to afford 1-[1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-propan-1-ol.
