Synthesis of ditopic ligands containing bis(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazol-1-yl)-methane fragments

New approaches have been proposed for the synthesis of compounds containing two bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methane fragments. Nucleophilic replacement of the halogen atoms in appropriate tetrabromo derivatives by pyrazoles in the superbasic system KOH-DMSO gave ditopic chelating ligands: 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethane, 1,4-bis[bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene, and 1,4-bis[bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene. 1,4-Bis[bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene was also synthesized by reaction of 1H-pyrazole with terephthalaldehyde in the presence of thionyl chloride. 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethane was converted into the corresponding tetraiodo and tetranitro derivatives.     

Cyclizations of monocyclic 5-nitropyridin-2(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

Reactions of 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and its N-methyl derivative with hydrazine hydrate led to the formation of (1H-pyrazol-3-yl) acetohydrazide. Under analogous conditions, 1,3-dimethyl-5-nitropyridin2(1H)-one gave rise to 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propionohydrazide, while 6-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one was converted into (5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)acetohydrazide. Hydrazinolysis of 4-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one resulted in the formation of 3-methyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole. The mechanism of recyclization of nitropyridine derivatives by the action of hydrazine hydrate was studied using 5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one and 1-methyl-5-nitropyridin-2(1H)-one as examples.

In reactions of this acid chloride with 4-amino-5-aryl(hetaryl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols were obtained ethyl 4-[(E)-2-{3-aryl(hetaryl)[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-6-yl}ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazoe-3-carboxylates, with 5-aryltetrazoles, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates, with 1-(2-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl) followed by the Baker-Venkataraman rearrangement and the cyclization, ethyl 4-[(E)-2-(6,8-dimethyl-4-oxo-4Hchromen-2-yl)ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate.

Treatment of 5-chloro-2-hydrazino-4-p-tolylsulfonyl-1,3-thiazole with acetylacetone led to the formation of previously unknown 5-chloro-2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4-p-tolylsulfonyl-1,3-thiazole which reacted with O-, S-, and N-centered nucleophiles at the C⁵ atom with high regioselectivity.

A preparative procedure for the synthesis of 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole by nitration of 1,4-dimethylpyrazole was developed. The reaction of 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole with dimethoxymethyl- (dimethyl)amine (N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal) gave (E)-N,N-dimethyl-2-(1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazol- 4-yl)ethenylamine. Acid hydrolysis of the latter afforded (1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazol-4-yl)acetaldehyde, and the reaction with sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid led to formation of 2-hydroxymino-2-(1-methyl- 3,5-dinitropyrazol-4-yl)acetaldehyde. The corresponding O-methyloxime and phenylhydrazone reacted with K₂CO₃ to give 6-methyl-4-nitropyrazolo[4,3-d]isoxazole-3-carbaldehyde O-methyloxime and 1-methyl-3-nitro-4-(2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyrazol-5-ol, respectively. Treatment of (1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazol-4-yl)-acetaldehyde with benzenediazonium chloride gave (1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazol-4-yl)acetaldehyde phenylhydrazone which underwent intramolecular cyclization with replacement of the 5-nitro group by the action of K₂CO₃ in acetonitrile; in the reaction with K₂CO₃ in ethanol, the 5-nitro group was replaced by ethoxy.

Complex formation of PdCl<Subscript>2</Subscript> with 1-substituted 3,5-dimethylpyrazoles

Herein the synthesis of 3-(3,5-Dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)butanal oxime (L) and its complex formation with PdCl₂ is studied. IR and 1Н NMR spectroscopic methods as well as X-ray diffraction analysis (СIF file CCDC no. 1531058) elucidate that the nitrogen atoms N(4) and N(15) from pyrazole and imine group of oxime respectively, participate in coordination with PdCl₂. Moreover, primarily thermal stability test shows that [PdCl₂(L)] complex (I) is quite stable at moderate temperatures and intense decomposition of latter occurs ca 200–210°C. As a consequence of thermal decomposition, both volatile ligand and its dehydration by-product 3-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)butanenitrile are formed. Afterwards, the anticonvulsant properties of PdCl₂, L, and I are of interest and well studied in this section.

Synthesis,structures, and magnetic properties of crystals of dinuclear copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes with 3-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-6-R-1,2,4,5-tetrazines

Dinuclear complexes of Cu^II with 3-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-6-(2-hydroxyethylami-no)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (1) and CoII with 3-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-6-(piperidin-1-yl)-1,2,4,5- tetrazine (2) were synthesized and structurally characterized, and the magnetic (SQUID) and resonance (EPR) properties of van der Waals crystals based on these complexes were studied. Unusual behavior of the effective magnetic moment μ_eff(T) is observed at T < 60 K. A nonmonotonic increase in μeff(?) for 1 (s~6 %) and a 20% reduction of μeff(?) for 2 have a common origin and are due to the influence of spin-orbital coupling on the character of the splitting between the t2g and eg levels of the central ion. Distortions of the coordination site “switch on” a positive (1) or negative (2) contribution of the orbital magnetic moment near 6 K. Irreversible temperature behavior of μeff(T) in the heating and cooling regimes in the vicinity of 60 K suggests that the character of structural distortions and the magnetic properties are related to ligand geometry. This factor plays a significant role in crystal engineering of magnetoactive structures with polynitrogen ligands.
