Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Hydrogen bromide (48% in water, 5 mL) was added dropwise to tert-butyl cyclopropyl(3-formyl-5-(5-(hydroxymethyl)thiophen-2-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-7-yl)carbamate (980 mg, 2.4 mmol) suspended in dichloromethane (5 mL). The solution immediately became dark brown and homogeneous upon addition. The reaction was heated to 40° C. for 4 hours, then diluted with dichloromethane (10 mL). The liquid was decanted and the gummy residue was washed with dichloromethane (3×10 mL). The combined liquids were washed successively with sat. NaHCO3 (20 mL) and brine (20 mL), and then dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with hexanes and then purified via flash column chromatography (10-20% EtOAc/hexanes) to provide 5-(5-(bromomethyl)thiophen-2-yl)-7-(cyclopropylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbaldehyde (300 mg, 34%) as a yellow solid. LCMS (ES): >95% pure, m/z 378 [M+1]+.
