Potassium Carbonate → 3-iodo-1-((1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)methyl)-4-nitro-1H-indazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To (1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)methanol (2.01 g, 17.93 mmol) in DCM (80 mL) at 0° C. was cautiously added thionyl chloride (10.43 mL, 143.4 mmol). The cold bath was removed and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residual yellow solid was diluted with DMF (30 mL). 3-Iodo-4-nitro-1H-indazole (5.181 g, 17.93 mmol) and K2CO3 (7.432 g, 53.78 mmol) were added to the DMF solution. The reaction mixture was stirred for 20 hours, and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove most of the DMF. The residue was diluted with DCM (100 mL) and washed with H2O. The organic phase was dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (EtOAc/Hexane 1:3) to provide the product (5.11 g).
