Selective synthesis of functionalized pyrazoles from 5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes with sodium nitrite: 5-Amino-4-nitrosopyrazoles and pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes

A novel and efficient redox reaction was developed to react 5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde with sodium nitrite (NaNO₂) in an acidic solution (HCl/MeOH) to generate 5-amino-4-nitrosopyrazole, pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde, or diazenylpyrazole selectively. The results showed that 5-amino-4-nitrosopyrazoles were formed as the major product in the diluted acidic solution (≤2 N HCl in MeOH solution) through redox, formylation, and nitrosation reactions of NaNO₂. Intriguingly, pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde was the main product under 6 N HCl in MeOH solution.     

A one-pot synthesis of 3-methyl-5-aryl-4H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]-isoxazoles

Sharpless epoxidation of 4-amino-3-methyl-5-styrylisoxazoles 1 resulted in the formation of 3-methyl-5-aryl-4H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]-isoxazoles 4 in a one-step reaction. The reaction initially involves epoxide formation, followed by ring-opening and cyclization. Finally dehydration leads to the title compounds. The pyrrolo[2,3-d]-isoxazoles 4 were also synthesized via an alternative procedure.

A novel four-component synthesis of ethyl 6-amino-4-aryl-5-cyano-2,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-3-carboxylates

A strategy for the synthesis of 2-aryl-3-dimethylaminopyrazolo-[3,4-c]pyridines that utilizes [4+1] cycloaddition reactions of 5-arylazo-2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridines

In order to explore the viability and generality of a recently uncovered [4+1] cycloaddition based strategy for the preparation of pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridine derivatives, members of a series of 5-arylazo-2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridines were prepared by reactions of 3-oxo-2-arylhydrazonopropanals with 3-oxo-3-phenylpropionitrile. The results show that 3-oxo-3-phenylpropionitrile reacts with hydrazone substrates, which do not contain electron-withdrawing substituents on the N-aryl ring of the arylhydrazone moieties, to efficiently produce 6-aryl-2-phenyl-5-arylazonicotinonitriles. In contrast, 2-amino-6-aryl-5-arylazo-3-benzoylpyridines are generated in reactions of 3-oxo-2-arylhydrazonopropanals, which contain electron-withdrawing substituents on the N-aryl moiety. In the forecasted manner, the 6-aryl-2-phenyl-5-arylazonicotinonitriles undergo smooth reactions with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal (DMF-DMA) that led to formation of a new class of 2-aryl-3-dimethylaminopyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridines. The mechanism for this process involves a [4+1] cycloaddition reaction that takes place through initial nucleophilic addition of dimethylamino)methoxycarbene, generated from DMF-DMA, to the azadiene moiety of the arylazopyridines followed by cyclization of the formed zwitterionic intermediate.

After cleavage, the target compounds were obtained in good yields and high purities without chromatographic purification.

5-Amino-4-aminomethyl-3-aryl-4,5-dihydroisoxazoles 2 were obtained by cycloaddition of nitrile oxides to 1,3-diaminopropenes 1. On reaction with methyl iodide the corresponding 4-(quaternary)-ammoniomethyl iodides 3 were formed. These compounds, on reaction with bases, afforded 5-amino-3-aryl-4-methylene-4,5-dihydroisoxazoles 4. The acid-catalyzed deamination of compounds 2 afforded 4-aminomethyl-3-arylisoxa-zoles 5 and 3-arylisoxazoles as retro-Mannich products.
