Reactions with heterocyclic amidines. VI. Synthesis and chemistry of pyrazol-5-yl,and 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides

The 4-bromo-3-phenylpyrazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides (Ia,b) and 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides (IIa,b) were prepared via coupling of diazotized 4-bromo-3-phenyl-5-aminopyrazole (III) and 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole (IV) with α-chloro derivatives of acetylacetone and of ethyl aceto-acetate. Compounds Ia and IIa,b were utilised for the synthesis of several new heterocyclic derivatives.
