Triethylamine → 6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

4.464 g (approx. 24.28 mmol, purity 92%) of 4-chloro-6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine were dissolved in 180 ml of dioxane, 2.948 g (29.14 mmol) of triethylamine and 5.629 g of 20% palladium hydroxide on carbon were added, and hydrogenation was effected with hydrogen at 3 bar and RT for 2 d. 100 ml of ethyl acetate, 2.948 g (29.14 mmol) of triethylamine and 2.000 g of 20% palladium hydroxide on carbon were added. The mixture was hydrogenated with hydrogen at 3 bar and RT for 3 h. The mixture was filtered through Celite and washed with a little dioxane/ethyl acetate, and the filtrate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator. 2.180 g (purity 73%, 49% of theory) of the target compound were obtained.
