Triacetoxyperiodinane → 1-tosyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of [1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-methanol (5.20 g, 20.61 mmol) in THF was added Dess-Martin periodinane (15.00 g, 35.37 mmol). After 3 hours, the mixture was diluted with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and filtered through diatomaceous earth. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with a gradient of 20-50% ethyl acetate in heptane. The major fractions were combined and the solvent was concentrated in vacuo to afford 1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde.
