The oxidation of the alcohols mixture with sodium hypochlorite in pure ethanoic acid produces only 3-a-chloro-3-exo-decanoyl-1,7,7-trimethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one.


3-chloro-3-decanoyl-1,7,7 trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one.



The oxidation of the alcohols mixture with sodium hypochlorite in pure ethanoic acid produces only 3-a-chloro-3-exo-decanoyl-1,7,7-trimethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one.


Oxidation with NaClO/ CH3CO2H
0.16 g (0.52 mmol) of the alcohols mixture was stirred for 12 h at 50° C with 1M (2.5 mL) aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite and pure ethanoic acid (4mL). The products were extracted with ethyl ether (3 x 40 mL) and the organic phase was washed with distilled water and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The organic fractions obtained were concentrated and the products were purified in a liquid column chromatography.



Under the reaction conditions studied the oxidation of the alcohols mixture with hypochlorite in pure ethanoic acid gives only product (8).
Compound (8) is a colorless liquid and the IR spectrum shows two bands at n 1754,9 cm-1 and n 1722,7 cm-1 for the carbonyl groups stretching of this compound. 

The 1H-NMR spectrum (Figure 6) and the 1H-1H-COSY shows two groups of signals for the H5 methylenes; at d 3.15 (1H, ddd, J= 7.8, 7.6, 3.9 Hz) for H5-endo and the signal for H5-exo at d 2.51 (1Hb, ddd, J= 7.8, 7.6, 6.5 Hz). 

The signals d 198.8 and d 212.0 in the 13C-NMR spectrum assigned to the two carbonyls support structure (8). Moreover the DEPT (135) experiment shows a new chemical shift at d 72.2, while the signal at d 75.77 for the methine (C3) disappears. 

 13C-NMR experiments help to the signals assignment for all of the carbons of the bicyclic ring and a part of the lateral aliphatic chain. Thus C2 at d 36.9 show coupling with the two signals for the diasterotopic hydrogens which signals appear at d 3.15 and 2.51. 

Besides the protons of the syn methyl group at C9 are shielded (d 0.62), because of the proximity to exo carbonylic group at C1'. The signals for the protons at C5 and C6 are very close, H5a and H6a are at d 2.03 and H5b and H6b at d 1.73. 

The incorporation of a chlorine atom on the alpha face was postulated due to both the shield induced on protons of one methyl at C7 and the chemical shift of H5a and H6ato lower field due to the fact that they are on the same face with respect to the chlorine.



Figure 6. 1H-NMR of 3-chloro-3-decanoyl-1,7,7 trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one.

A probable explanation for the formation of compound (8) lies on the fact that an acidic solution of sodium hypochlorite has a certain concentration of Cl2 at the thermodynamic equilibrium (figure 8). Chlorine can add to the double bond of the enol structure of the oxidation products. 

It is expected that the attack by the chlorine is on the most exposed alpha face of the enol structure, producing the intermediate showed in Figure 8. This intermediate can quickly rearrange to the more stable compound (8).

Aldolization procedure
Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) was prepared from diisopropylamine (12.4 mL, 92.1 mmol) with n-butyllithium (51.4 mL of a 1.6 M solution in hexane, 82.24 mmol) in 30.0 mL of dry THF at -78°C. The solution was stirred for 30 min. and then a solution of camphor (12.0 g, 78.9 mmol) in dry THF (52.0 mL) was added dropwise. After the addition, the solution was stirred for 2.5 h, treated with freshly distilled aldehyde (79.0 mmol) and stirred for an additional 20 min. the reaction was quenched at -78°C with a saturated aqueous solution of NH4Cl (200 mL). The cold bath was then removed and the mixture extracted with ethyl ether (3 x 100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with an aqueous NaCl solution, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuum to afford the adduct mixture. The products were purified by liquid column chromatography and the adducts ratio obtained was quantified by 1H-NMR.

WATCHOUT

EXO ENDO ,,,UNDERSTAND STEREOCHEMICAL CONSIDERATIONS USING NMR


Endo and exo isomerism in norbornyl systems

Endo-exo isomerism is a special type of isomerism found in organic compounds with a substituent on a bridged ring system. The prefix endo is reserved for the isomer with the substituent located closest, or "syn," to the longest bridge. The prefix exo is reserved for the isomer with the substituent located farthest, or "anti", to the longest bridge. Here "longest" and "shortest" refer to the number of atoms that comprise the bridge. This type of molecular geometry is found in norbornane systems such as dicyclopentadiene.


The terms endo and exo are used in a similar sense in discussions of the stereoselectivity in Diels–Alder reactions.

Descriptors of the relative orientation of groups attached to non-bridgehead atoms in a bicyclo[x.y.z]alkane (x ≥ y > z > 0).
E02094-1
If the group is orientated towards the highest numbered bridge (z bridge, e.g. C-7 in example below) it is given the description exo; if it is orientated away from the highest numbered bridge it is given the description endo. If the group is attached to the highest numbered bridge and is orientated towards the lowest numbered bridge (x bridge, e.g. C-2 in example below) it is given the description syn; if the group is orientated away from the lowest numbered bridge it is given the description anti.
E02094-2






Cyclopentanes
The conformational analysis of substituted cyclopentanes is much more complicated than that of cyclohexanes. 

The energy differences between various envelope and twist conformations in five-membered rings are generally small, and there are as many as ten different envelope and ten different twist conformations, and each conformation has multiple dihedral angle relationships. 

Several of the 20 possible conformations may be populated in an individual structure. Thus the vicinal couplings in 5-membered rings are highly variable. 

For cyclopentanes in envelope conformations Jcis > Jtrans in the flat part part of the envelope, whereas in twist conformations the tendency is for Jtrans > Jcis

In general, no firm assignments of stereochemistry can be made using the size of couplings alone unless a specific substitution pattern or heterocyclic system has been carefully investigated, or if substitution patterns allow prediction of the conformation.


  

  


Inspection of the double Karplus curves indicates a significant difference between the typical behavior of adjacent CH2 groups in cyclohexanes and cyclopentanes. 

In a chair cyclohexane only one of the four vicinal couplings can be large (> 7 Hz), whereas in a cyclopentane it is common for 2 or even 3 of the 3J couplings to be large.


  




In most cyclopentanes, the C-C-C-C dihedral angles are significantly smaller than the 60° found in cyclohexanes. Cis protons will tend to have H-C-C-H dihedral angles close to 0°, andtrans near 120°. 

The cis couplings (8-10 Hz) are usually larger than trans (2-9 Hz). 

However the Karplus curves for cyclopentane have a region where the cis and trans lines cross (Figure above, at ca 20° dihedral angle), so there are cases where cis and trans couplings are identical (see below, where the allylic proton is a quartet of doublets, arising from accidental equivalence of three vicinal couplings), as well as a smaller region where Jtrans > Jcis .


  

  


If the ring puckering is strong enough, then Jtrans > Jcis. In bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes the endo-endo and exo-exo 3J are always greater than endo-exo couplings. 


Thus stereochemical relations among vicinal protons in 5-membered rings cannot be reliably determined by simply measuring coupling constants, except in cases where the substitution pattern of the specific ring system has been carefully investigated. 


For example, in the benzodihydrofurans below, changing the size of the substituent R causes a reversal in the size of Jcis and Jtrans.

The ENDO product is the one where the "outside" groups on the diene are on the SAME side of the 6-membered ring as the electron withdrawing group (EWG). The EXO product is the one where the "outside" groups are on the OPPOSITE side of the ring as the 6-membered ring.
Note how the Endo and Exo products are related - they're diastereomers
Here's some examples.








OVERLAPS






Determination of Stereochemistry......Cis Trans Organic Compounds, NMR INSIGHT








Cyclopropanes.
Dihedral angles in cyclopropanes are rigidly fixed by the geometry of the ring system. We therefore find that Jcis (7-10 Hz) is always larger than Jtrans (2-6 Hz), and this can be reliably used for structure assignment. The same relationship holds for the 3-membered ring heterocycles, although the range of observed couplings is wider.
  




Cyclobutanes. 
Cyclobutanes are even flatter than cyclopentanes, so that cis couplings are almost always larger (6-9 Hz) than trans (2-8). However, if structural features which promote strong puckering of the ring such as a trans ring fusion, large or electronegative substituents are present, then trans couplings can become larger than cis, as shown for 1,3-dibromocyclobutane and cyclobutanol below.

A pyrazolo-pyrimidinone similar to sildenafil; phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor. Udenafil is a new phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). It has been approved in South Korea and will be marketed under the brand name Zydena.
It is not yet approved for use in the U.S., E.U., or Canada. Udenafil (Zydena®) is also a potent and selective PDE5i developed by Dong-A Pharmaceutical Company in Korea (Kim et al., 2008; Han et al., 2010).
It has not yet been approved by FDA or the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) and was only approved by the Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA), being currently used in Korea and Russia (Alwaal et al., 2011; Cho et al., 2012).

Udenafil is a drug used in urology to treat erectile dysfunction. It belongs to a class of drugs called PDE5 inhibitor, which many other erectile dysfunction drugs such as sildenafiltadalafil, and vardenafil also belong to. It was developed by Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and is marketed under the trade name Zydena™.[2] With a T max of 1.0-1.5 h and a T 1/2 of 11-13 h (a relatively rapid onset and a long duration of action), both on-demand and once-daily use of udenafil have been reported.[3] Typical doses are 100 and 200 mg. It is not approved for use in the United States by theU.S. Food and Drug Administration. Udenafil (DA-8159), a pyrazolopyramidinone derivative that acts as a phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, was launched by Dong-A Pharmtech (currently Mezzion Pharma) in late 2005 in Korea for the oral treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). The company is currently conducting phase III clinical trials in the U.S. for this indication.
Dong-A Pharmatech is conducting phase III clinical trials for the treatment of patients with portal hypertension resulting from liver disease and for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Phase II/III clinical studies at Dong-A Pharmatech for the treatment of secondary Raynaud phenomenon have been completed. Meiji Seika Pharma is developing the compound in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of BPH in Japan.
Phosphodiesterases regulate the tissue concentration of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which in turn triggers smooth muscle relaxation, allowing blood to flow into the penis and resulting in erection. PDE5 is the most abundant phosphodiesterase in the human corpus cavernosum, and as such its inhibition by DA-8159 enhances erectile function by increasing the concentration of cGMP. Results from phase I studies indicate that udenafil has a unique pharmacokinetic profile with a relatively rapid onset and sufficiently long duration to make it effective for up to 24 hours. In 2009, the compound was licensed to Warner Chilcott (acquired by Actavis in 2013) by Dong-A Pharmatech for development and marketing in the U.S. for the oral treatment of erectile dysfunction.
In 2011, udenafil was licensed to Meiji Seika Pharma by Dong-A ST in Japan for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Udenafil is a potent novel phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor approved for use in Korea. Udenafil has unique properties, with a T max of 1.0–1.5 h and a T 1/2 of 11–13 h (a relatively rapid onset and a long duration of action). Therefore, both on-demand and once-daily use of udenafil have been reported. Udenafil’s efficacy and tolerability have been evaluated in several studies, and recent and continuing studies have demonstrated udenafil’s promise in both dosing regimens. Presently, tadalafil is the only FDA-approved drug for daily dosing, but udenafil can be used as a once-daily dose for erectile dysfunction patients who cannot tolerate tadalafil due to phosphodiesterase subtype selectivity. Udenafil as an on-demand or once-daily dose is effective and tolerable, but more studies are needed in patients of other ethnicities and with comorbid conditions such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and benign prostate hyperplasia.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined as the inability to achieve and maintain a sufficient erection to permit satisfactory intercourse [Montorsi et al. 2010]. Numerous strategies have been used to overcome ED. Therapies for ED include intracavernosal injection, vacuum erection devices, intraurethral suppositories, penile prosthesis surgery and oral phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors [Dinsmore and Evans, 1999]. Oral PDE5-inhibitor medications have revolutionized the treatment of ED. Men prefer oral medications as the first-line therapeutic option in the absence of a specific contraindication to their use [Ding et al. 2012].
There are currently four PDE5 inhibitors (sildenafil, vardenafil, tadalafil, and avanafil) approved worldwide for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction, with two other agents (udenafil and mirodenafil) currently approved only in Korea [Bell and Palmer, 2011]. The choice of PDE5 inhibitor for each patient should be determined after physician and patient discuss the characteristics of different drugs and the individual patient’s sexual habits, preferences, and expectations [Hatzimouratidis et al. 2010]. There are two types of treatment usage of PDE5 inhibitors according to their pharmacological characteristics. On-demand treatment of ED with PDE5 inhibitors allows the patient to have intercourse within 1 hour, but can remove spontaneity from sexual activity and be burdensome to patients and their partners [Hanson-Divers et al. 1998]. Once-daily dosing of a PDE5 inhibitor is an alternative for couples that prefer spontaneous sexual activities.
A new oral selective PDE5 inhibitor, udenafil (Zydena, Dong-A, Seoul, Korea), has recently been developed for the treatment of ED. Udenafil is a novel pyrazolopyrimidinone compound developed by Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (Seoul, Korea) for the treatment of ED which has the same mechanism of action as sildenafil [Kim et al. 2008]. Udenafil is rapidly absorbed, reaching peak plasma concentrations at 0.8–1.3 h, then declining monoexponentially with a terminal half-life (T 1/2) between 7.3 and 12.1 hours, giving it the unique pharmacokinetics of both relatively rapid onset and long duration [Salem et al. 2006]. Thus, both on-demand treatment and once-daily dosing have been reported in the literature. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of udenafil for patients with ED according to the currently available literature.
Udenafil” refers to the chemical compound, 3-(1-methyl-7-oxo-3-propyl-4,7-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-5-yl)-N-[2-(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl)ethyl]-4-propoxybenzenesulfonamide and has the following chemical formula:

More information about udenafil can be found at Kouvelas D. et al., (2009) Curr Pharm Des, 15(30):3464-75. Udenafil is marketed under the trade name Zydena® but not approved for use in the United States. TRADE NAME IN INDIA – UDEZIRE Erectile dysfunction (ED) is an inability to achieve or sustain an erection suitablefor sexual intercourse.
Sexologists say at least 10% men in India may have to use these drugs at some point. Studies have shown that 40% of men up to the age of 40 years have ED andit goesup 70% by 60 years. The commonly prescribed drugs for the disorder in India are sildenafil(Viagra) and tadalafil,which belong to a category called phosphodiesterasetype5 drugs.
Now, Zydus, a pharmaceutical company, has got exclusive permission to sell udenafil. It’s not always that the release of a drug is celebrated by many, particularly men. A drug that was released in India last week is the recent in the list of drugs that has a cure for erectile dysfunction. The manufacturers say udenafil, which will be marketed under the brand name Udezire, will be long-acting, but with minimal side effects. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is an inability to achieve or sustain an erection suitable for sexual intercourse. Sexologists say at least 10% men in India may have to use these drugs at some point.

Udenafil like Sildenafil, Tadalafil, Avanafil,  and Vardenafil (Viagra®, Cialis®, Stendra ® and Levitra® respectively) is an orally taken PDE-5 inhibitor. Its function is very similar in that it blocks the action of phosphodiesterase type 5 and relieves erectile dysfunction in men. Zydena ED treatment
Udenafil is produced by Dong-A PharmTech Co Ltd. from Korea and has actually been used there since Nov 2005 and marketed as Zydena® and has since been approved for use in Russia in 2008. An indication that it may indeed prove to be a factor in the ED medication mix in the US one day. In 2009 Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Dong-A PharmTech, Co. Ltd. announced  that it had completed a 240 patient once-a-day dosing clinical study of udenafil, its new long acting phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor for erectile dysfunction (ED).
The multi-center study conducted in Korea was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of udenafil in patients with ED. Following a 4-week non-drug baseline period, 240 men with ED of broad etiology and severity were randomized to one of four treatment groups: Placebo, udenafil 25 mg, udenafil 50 mg or udenafil 75 mg. Patients took one tablet a day for 12 weeks with evaluations every 4 weeks.

The primary efficacy endpoint was the change in the standard International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) Erectile Function Domain (EF) score from baseline to final visit. The secondary efficacy endpoints were the change from the baseline in the mean vaginal penetration success rates and mean intercourse completion rates calculated from the Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) questions 2 and 3. In addition a sub-group analysis was conducted to determine efficacy in the patients that had lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia in addition to erectile dysfunction.

INTRODUCTION
Udenafil (Zydena®) is a therapeutic agent hypothesized to improve erectile function endpoints through interaction with the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) enzyme. As such, udenafil belongs to the class of such agents that includes tadalafil (Clalis®), sildenafil (Viagra®), and vardenafil (Levitra®). These agents are purported to promote erectile response through inhibition of PDE5, the predominant PDE within the penis, which leads to higher intracellular levels of cyclic guanylate cyclase (cGMP). cGMP is a second messenger for the smooth-muscle relaxing effects of nitric oxide within the penis. The various agents differ in pharmacology primarily based on 1) onset and duration of action and 2) selectivity profiles vs. other PDEs. All three marketed agents have proven remarkably safe. These agents should not be taken by patients with unstable cardiovascular disease. Udenafil has been shown to exhibit greater selectivity against the known PDE homologues, than other PDE5 inhibitors. Udenafil is comparable to tadalafil in many respects, such as duration of action and high selectivity for PDE6, but udenafil has greater selectivity for PDE11 than tadalafil.
Tadalafil, with a half life of 17.5 hours, has a much longer duration of action and improved exercise tolerance than either sildenfail or vardenafil, which have half lives of 4-5 hours. Consequently, tadalafil is associated with less planning or pressure to have sexual intercourse after dosing. Dissociation of the sexual activity from the time of dosing is associated with higher rates of patient and partner satisfaction. In prospective, randomized crossover clinical studies, patients preferred tadalafil over sildenafil by margins ranging from 7:3 to 9:1. Sildenafil and vardenafil both modulate PDE6 at higher rate than tadalafil. PDE6 modulation has been associated with chromatopsia. The side effects of chromatopsia, such as sensitivity to light and blurred vision, are therefore higher in patients taking sildenafil or vardenafil, about 2-3%, than patients taking tadalafil, about <0.1%. Tadalafil is less selective than sildenafil and vardenafil for PDE5 and for PDE11a. Activity at PDE11a is suspected to have a causal relationship with myalgia and testicular toxicity. The selectivity profile for udenafil is similar to sildenafil, which should impart greater safety for this agent.
Figure US20080194529A1-20080814-C00002
The benefits and shortcomings of these drugs have been reviewed. Some of these shortcomings can be traced to metabolism-related phenomena. Udenafil is converted in vivo by oxidative and conjugative degradation to multiple metabolites. Phase I metabolism leads to demethylation of the pyrazole, hydroxylation of the pyrazole propyl group, and dealkylation alpha to the sulfonamide nitrogen to afford an active metabolite. Because udenafil is metabolized primarily by cytochrome P450 subtype 3A4 (CYP3A4), exposure to udenafil can influence polypharmacy. For example, CYP3A4 inhibitors such as HIV protease inhibitors, azole antifungals, and erythromycin can lead to higher than otherwise expected blood levels of udenafil. Conversely, co-administration of CYP3A4 inducers such as rifampin can decrease the otherwise expected blood levels of udenafil. Thus, the polypharmacy of udenafil is necessarily complex and has potential for adverse events. In addition, there may be increased inter-patient variability in response to polypharmacy.
Analogs of udenafil as described herein have the potential to alleviate the problems associated with the commercially available PDE5 inhibitors while maintaining or improving efficacy. It is believed that the reduction in CYP3A4 clearance of udenafil analogs will be expected to increase the proportion of clearance via mechanisms less susceptible to polypharmaceutical complications. In addition, analogs of udenafil having an attenuated rate of oxidative metabolism will have an increased half-life, further augmenting their advantages vs. tadalafil, sildenafil and vardenafil. Potentially, a single dose of an udalafil analog, described herein, having an increased half-life may provide therapeutic coverage for an entire weekend or beyond while increasing safety parameters by reducing the likelihood of drug-drug interactions and by increasing safety as a result of the increased selectivity.

The compounds of formula 1 may contain asymmetric centers and thus they can exist as enantiomers. The present invention includes both mixtures and separate individual isomers . Male erectile dysfunction is one of the most common sexual dysfunctions in men. Although erectile dysfunction can be primarily psychogenic in origin, it often accompanies chronic illnesses, such as diabetes mellitus, heart disease, hypertension, and a variety of neurological diseases. Its prevalence is strongly related to age, with a estimated prevalence of 2% at age 40 years rising to 25-30% by age of 65. Although no data are available on the prevalence of erectile dysfunction in men aged over 75, it is probably over 50%. Various treatment options for erectile dysfunction are available, such as counseling, hormonal therapy, self-injection or transurethral application of vasodilator agents, vacuum devices, prosthesis implantation, and venous/arterial surgery. However, these therapeutic options have several limitations such as side effects, high-cost and low efficacy.
Therefore it has called for research efforts to develop new, high effective and simple to use treatment methods, potentially oral medication. Recently, sildenafil has been developed as a therapeutic agent for male erectile dysfunction by oral administration. Sildenafil is the first in a new class of drugs known as inhibiting phosphodiesterase-5 enzyme distributed specifically in corpus cavernosal tissues and induces relaxation of the corpus cavernosal smooth muscle cells, so that blood flow to the penis is enhanced, leading to an erection.
Sildenafil has shown a response rate of around 80% in men with erectile dysfunction of organic cause. On the other hand, USP 3,939,161 discloses that 1 , 3 -dimethyl -lH-pyrazolopyrimidinone derivatives exhibit anticonvulsant and sedative activiity, and also exhibit anti-inflammatory activity and gastric antisecretory activity; EP 201,188 discloses that 5-substituted pyrazolopyrimidinone derivatives have effects of antagonizing adenosine receptor and of inhibiting phosphodiesterase enzymes and can be used for the treatment of cardiovascular disorders such as heart failure or cardiac insufficiency; EP 463,756, EP 526,004, WO 93/6,104 and WO 93/7,149 disclose that pyrazolopyrimidinone derivatives which inhibit c-GMP phosphodiesterase more selectively than c-AMP phosphodiesterase have efficacy on cardiovascular disorders such as angina pectoris, hypertension, heart failure, atherosclerosis, chronic asthma, etc.; and WO 94/28,902, WO 96/16,644, WO 94/16,657 and WO 98/49,166 disclose that the known inhibitors of c-GMP phosphodiesterase including the pyrazolopyrimidinone derivatives of the above mentioned patents can be used for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction Since sildenafil has been developed, various compounds for inhibiting phosphodiesterase-5 have been reported.
Among them, pyrazolopyrimidinone compounds of formula 1 (KR Pat. No. 99-49384) were reported having better potency than that of sildenafil, based on the mechanism of inhibiting phosphodiesterase-5 and having better selectivity over phosphodiesterase-6 distributed in retina and phosphodiesterase-3 distributed in heart to reduce the side effects. Further, the pyrazolopyrimidinone compounds of formula 1 were said to be improved the solubility and the metabolism in the liver, which are very important factor affecting the rate of the absorption when administered orally.
The KR patent No. 99-49384 also disclosed a process for preparing the pyrazolopyrimidinone compounds of formula , comprising the steps of: a) reacting chlorosulfonated alkoxy bonzoic acid with a primary amine to obtain sulfonamide-substituted benzoic acid; b) reacting the obtained sulfonamide-substituted benzoic acid with pyrazolamine in the presence of activating reagent of carboxylic group or coupling agent of carboxylic group with amine group to obtain corresponding amide compound; and, c) performing an intramolecular cyclization of the obtained amide compound to obtain the pyrazolopyrimidinone compound of formula 1.
