Sodium Thiosulfate → 2-(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)-7-fluoro-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine 5-oxide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.) solution of 2-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-7-fluoro-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine (5.4 g, 19.1 mmol) in DCM (100 mL) was added mCPBA (5.2 g, 30.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 1.5 hours, warmed to room temperature, and stirred for a further 16 hours. Sodium thiosulfate (sat. aq.) was added and the layers were partitioned. The organic layer was washed with sodium hydrogen carbonate (sat. aq.) and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with ether to afford the title compound as a beige solid (5.04 g, 89% yield). LCMS (Method C): RT=2.45 min, m/z: 298 [M+H+].
