Process for preparing substituted 5-fluoro-1H-pyrazolopyridines
View Patent ↗The present application relates to a novel and efficient process for preparing novel substituted 5-fluoro-1H-pyrazolopyridines of the formula (VI) which are suitable as an intermediate for production of medicaments and for production of medicaments for treatment and/or prophylaxis of cardiovascular disorders. More particularly, the 5-fluoro-1H-pyrazolopyridines of the formula (VI) are suitable for preparation of the compound of the formula (I) which serves for production of medicaments, for production of medicaments for treatment and/or prophylaxis of cardiovascular disorders.
1. A process of preparing a compound of formula (I), comprising using the compound of formula (VI)
to prepare a compound of formula (I)
wherein the compound of formula (I) is optionally converted with an appropriate (i) solvent and/or (ii) acid or base to the solvate, salt and/or solvate of the salt thereof.
2. A process of preparing a compound of formula (I)
by converting the compound of the formula (VI) to the compound of the formula (VII)
reacting the compound of formula (VII) in an inert solvent in the presence of a suitable base with the compound of the formula (VIIIa)
to give the compound of the formula (VIII)
and reducing the compound of formula (VIII) in an inert solvent in the presence of a suitable reducing agent to give the compound (IX)
and reacting the compound of formula (IX) with methyl chloroformate or with dimethyl dicarbonate in the presence of a suitable base with or without solvent to give the compound of the formula (I), and
optionally, converting the resulting compound of formula (I) with the appropriate (i) solvent and/or (ii) acid or base to the solvate, salt and/or solvate of the salt thereof.
