Thionyl Chloride → HCID 22249986, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-mesityl-2,5-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-ol (500 mg, 1.54 mmol) and thionyl chloride (0.26 mL) in benzene (30 mL) was heated under reflux for two hours. After cooling to room temperature, the resulting crystals were collected by filtration. A suspension of the resulting crystals in 2% sodium carbonate was stirred at room temperature for two hours. The crystals were collected by filtration and purified by silica gel column chromatography (50-70% ethyl acetate/hexane), to give the title compound (310 mg) as pale brown crystals.
