Procedure

tert-Butyl 1,4,6,7-tetrahydro-5H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine-5-carboxylate (4.0 g, 18 mmol) and cyclopropylboronic acid (3.08 g, 35.8 mmol) were combined in dichloroethane (200 mL). After sequential addition of sodium carbonate (3.80 g, 35.8 mmol), copper(II) acetate (3.58 g, 17.9 mmol) and 2,2′-bipyridine (2.80 g, 17.9 mmol), the reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 18 hours while open to the atmosphere. The reaction mixture was then diluted with ethyl acetate (500 mL) and filtered through diatomaceous earth; the filtrate was washed with saturated ammonium chloride solution and concentrated in vacuo. Purification via silica gel chromatography (Gradient: 0% to 100% ethyl acetate in heptane) was followed by supercritical fluid chromatography (Column: Chiral Technologies, Chiralpak AD-H, 5 μm; Eluent: 85:15 carbon dioxide/methanol) to obtain the major regioisomer, which was the first-eluting peak. The indicated regiochemistry was assigned on the basis of NOE studies carried out on C46. Yield: 1.7 g, 6.5 mmol, 36%.
