Reaction Steps

1-Methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid [3-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-6-carbonyl)-phenyl]-amide (0.205 g, 0.548 mmol) and ethyl formate (0.132 mL, 1.64 mmol) were dissolved in anhydrous ethanol (1.1 mL). The resulting solution was treated in dropwise fashion with a 21 wt % solution of sodium ethoxide in ethanol (1.00 mL, 2.74 mmol). This reaction mixture was heated at 78° C. for 1 h, producing a black oil. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and then the reaction pH was adjusted to pH 1 with dropwise addition of 1M HCl(aq) causing the formation of a pale orange precipitate. The suspension was filtered yielding an orange solid as the pure 1-Methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid [3-(3-hydroxymethylene-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-6-carbonyl)-phenyl]-amide (0.178 g, 0.444 mmol, 81%).
