Reaction Steps

To {3-{[tert-butyl(diphenyl)silyl]oxy}-1-[4-(1-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]cyclobutyl}acetonitrile (2.0 g, 3.0 mmol, a mixture of diastereomers from Step A) ethanol (82 mL) was added 5.0 M sodium hydroxide in water (9 mL, 50 mmol). The reaction was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and ethanol was removed in vacuo. The aqueous mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×). The combined organic extracts were washed with water, then brine, dried over sodium sulfate, decanted and concentrated. The product, as a mixture of diastereomers, was used without further purification in Step C. LCMS (M+H)+: 424.2.
