The present invention relates to a new process for the preparation of N-[5-(3-dimethylamino-acryloyl)-2-fluorophenyl]-N-methyl-acetamide (I) in a high yield and high purity, which is an intermediate in the synthesis of compounds with affinity for GABAA receptor. In this process, N-(5-acetyl-2-fluorophenyl)-N-methyl-acetamide (VI) is reacted with an excess of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (NNDMF-DMA). The present invention also provides a new process for the preparation of a compound with affinity for GABAA receptor, N-2-fluoro-5-[3-(thiophene)-2-carbonyl-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-yl]phenyl}-N-methyl-acetamide (II), which comprises the following steps: a) methylation of N-(5-acetyl-2-fluorophenyl)-N-acetamide (IV) with a methyl sulfonate, b) reaction of the resulting compound (VI) with NNDMF-DMA, and c) reaction of the resulting compound (I) with (5-amino-1H-pirazol-4-yl)thiophen-2-yl-methanone (III) in glacial acetic acid. The present invention also relates to new intermediate (VI).
