Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-((6-chloro-1-trityl-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-3-yl)oxy)ethanol (58B, 500 mg, 0.987 mmol) and copper(I) iodide (282 mg, 1.480 mmol) in acetonitrile (2861 μl) were degassed (evacuated and back filled w/Argon). 2,2-difluoro-2-(fluorosulfonyl)acetic acid (153 μl, 1.480 mmol) was added, degassed, and heated at 80° C. for 30 min. Reaction was quenched with water (1 mL), diluted with EtOAc and filtered through a celite pug. The solution was concentrated in vacuo on silica. Material was purified by normal phase column chromotography eluting with Hex/EtOAc (0-20%) affording 6-chloro-3-(2-(difluoromethoxy)ethoxy)-1-trityl-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine (59B, 277 mg, 0.547 mmol, 55.5% yield) as a white crystalline solid. MS: [M+H]+ m/z 506.
