Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(5-tert-butyl-2-methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-ylamino)-5-methoxy-benzoic acid methyl ester (Example 155, 1.34 g, 4.22 mmol) in acetic acid (27 mL), was added dropwise a solution of Br2 (6.74 g, 4.22 mmol) in acetic acid (5 mL). The reaction was stirred for 5 min, and then water (100 mL) was added. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc, and the combined organic layers were washed with water, and then with NaHCO3 (10% aqueous solution) 10 times. The organic layer was then dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluent: 5 to 10% EtOAc in hexane) to give the title compound as a light yellow solid. (1.49 g, 89%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.40 (s, 9H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 4.05 (s, 3H), 6.32 (d, 1H), 7.06 (dd, 1H), 7.48 (d, 1H).
