Procedure: A suspension of (4-fluorophenyl)propynoic acid methyl ester (1.6 g, 9.0 mmol) in MeOH (10 mL) and H2O (10 mL) was heated at 60° C. and MeNHNH2 (0.5 mL, 9.4 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 20 min. then filtered. The residue was washed with H2O (10 mL) and MeOH (5 mL) and dried to give 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-methyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one (0.63 g, 36%). The filtrate was then concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue dissolved in EtOAc (20 ml) and washed with H2O (3×15 mL). The aqueous layer was acidified to pH 5.5 with 2 M citric acid solution (3×15 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×20 mL). The extracts were dried (MgSO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-2-methyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one (0.2 g, 12%). then filtered The residue was washed with H2O (10 mL) and MeOH (5 mL) dried

Procedure: A solution of 4-fluorophenylacetylene (2.86 mL, 3.00 g, 24.97 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran at −78° C. was treated with a solution of n-butyllithium in hexanes (2.29 M, 12.0 mL, 27.5 mmol) followed by stirring at −78° C. for 45 minutes. The solution was then treated rapidly with methyl chloroformate (2.12 mL, 2.60 g, 27.5 mmol) followed by stirring at −78° C. for 30 minutes and warming to room temperature for 18 hours. The mixture was treated with water and concentrated in vacuo to remove tetrahydrofuran. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed with water and saturated sodium chloride solution. Drying (Na2SO4) and concentration in vacuo afforded a yellow solid, which was chromatographed over a 340 g silica gel cartridge, eluting with 15-50% dichloromethane in hexanes. These procedures afforded the product (2.95 g, 66%) as an off-white fluffy solid. by stirring at −78° C. for 30 minutes warming to room temperature for 18 hours concentrated in vacuo to remove tetrahydrofuran The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate washed with water and saturated sodium chloride solution Drying (Na2SO4) and concentration in vacuo afforded a yellow solid, which was chromatographed over a 340 g silica gel cartridge eluting with 15-50% dichloromethane in hexanes
