methyl 6-chloro-5-[(1E)-3-methoxy-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]-2-methyl-2H-indazole-4-carboxylate → methyl 6-chloro-5-(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)-2-methyl-2H-indazole-4-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 6-chloro-5-[(1E)-3-methoxy-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]-2-methyl-2H-indazole-4-carboxylate (440 mg, 1.43 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was added 5% platinum-activated carbon (88 mg), and the mixture was stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 2 days. The catalyst was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=30/70→70/30) to give the title compound (295 mg, yield 66%).
