Sodium Bicarbonate → 6-(3-Ethoxycarbonyl-benzyl)-1-(3-nonyl)-3-methyl-1,5-dihydro-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

11 mg (0.042 mmol) of 5-amino-3-methyl-1-(3-nonyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide and 37 mg (0.167 mmol) of methyl 3-ethoxycarbonylphenylacetate are refluxed for 6 hours in 0.5 ml of a 0.5M ethanolic sodium ethoxide solution. After dichloromethane and saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution have been added, the phases are separated. Purification by chromatography gives 6.8 mg (37%) of a solid, Rf=0.47 (dichloromethane/methanol=15:1).
