Synthesis and reactions of pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes

1-, 3-, and 5-Alkylpyrazoles, as well as linearly bridged bis-pyrazoles, were converted into the corresponding 4-formyl derivatives by Vilsmeier-Haak reaction both under standard conditions and under microwave activation in DMF over a period of 10 min. 1,1′-(Hexane-1,6-diyl)bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole) and 1,1′-(benzene-1,4-diyldimethylene)bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole) gave rise to 4-formyl derivatives at both pyrazole rings. 5-Chloro-1,3-dialkyl-1H-pyrazoles failed to undergo formylation according to Vilsmeier-Haak or under microwave activation. 1,1′-Bridged bis-3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazoles reacted with 2-sulfanylethanol on heating in the presence of chloro(trimethyl)silane to give the corresponding bridged bis-4-(1,4,6-oxadithiocan-5-yl)-1H-pyrazoles.

Compounds II and IV are studied by NMR spectroscopy.     

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.

Nitropyrazoles: XII. Transformations of the 4-Methyl Group in 1,4-Dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole and Cyclization of the Transformation Products

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.

Reactivity of pyrrole pigments,XX. On the structure of Cu(II) and Zn(II) tripyrrin-1-one chelates in solution

Summary The Cu(II) and Zn(II) chelates of 12,14-dimethyl-2,3,7,8-tetraethyl-15H-tripyrrin-1-one, 12,13-dimethyl-2,3,7,8-tetraethyl-15H-tripyrrin-1-one, and their sulfonate derivatives are studied. The chelates show the expected structure of an NH dideprotonated ligand chelating the metal ion. However, in the case of the Zn chelate of 12,14-dimethyl-2,3,7,8-tetraethyl-15H-tripyrrin-1-one the ligand is only monodeprotonated, and the lactam ring is tautomerized to a hydroximino function.

Nitropyrazoles

A method for the synthesis of 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile from 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole was developed. Nucleophilic substitution in 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole, 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carboxamide, and 1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile involves solely the 5-NO₂-group in the ring. 1-Methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazole-4-carbonitrile reacts with thioglycolic acid phenylamide and potassium carbonate to give 4-amino-1-methyl-3-nitro-N-phenyl-1H-thieno[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carboxamide. The use of glycolic acid phenylamide instead of thioglycolic acid N-phenylamide under analogous conditions resulted in 5-anilino-1-methyl-3-nitro-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile. An explanation for the regiospecificity of the nucleophilic substitution of the 5-NO₂ group in 4-R-1-methyl-3,5-dinitropyrazoles is given. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of 3-dialkylaminomethyl-5-methyl-4-substituted-1H-pyrazoles. Selective functionalization of one methyl group via n-nitration of 3,5-dimethyl-4-substituted-1H-pyrazoles

Treatment of 4-substituted 3,5-dimethyl-1-nitro-1H-pyrazoles 1 and 10a-c with secondary amines in acetonitrile, in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU), affords the novel dialkyl-aminomethyl-1H-pyrazoles 5, 6, 7, 8, 11a-c, 12a-c and 13a-c in good to excellent yields. In this way one of the, in general, inert methyl groups of 3,5-dimethyl-4-substituted-1H-pyrazoles is functionalized creating a new synthetic route to azoles containing a coordinating substituent.     

Synthesis,spectral, crystallography and thermal investigations of novel Schiff base complexes of manganese (III) derived from heterocyclic β-diketone with aromatic and aliphatic diamine

The Schiff base tetradentate ligands N,N-bis-(3,5-dimethyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-4-ylmethylene)-ethane-1,2-diamine (H₂L¹), N,N-bis-(3,5-dimethyl-1-p-sulfonyl-1H-pyrazol-4-ylmethylene)-ethane-1,2-diamine (H₂L²), N,N-bis-(3,5-dimethyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-4-ylmethylene)-benzene-1,2-diamine (H₂L³) and N,N-bis-(3,5-dimethyl-1-p-sulfonyl-1H-pyrazol-4-ylmethylene)-benzene-1,2-diamine (H₂L⁴) were prepared from the reaction between 5-oxo-3-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde or 4-(4-formyl-5-oxo-3-methyl-pyrazol-1-yl)-benzenesulfonic acid and o-phenylenediamine or ethylenediamine. And these are characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H NMR and GC–MS. The corresponding Schiff base complexes of Mn(III) were prepared by condensation of [Mn₃(μ₃-O)(OAc)₆(H₂O)₃]·3H₂O with ligands H₂L¹, H₂L², H₂L³ and H₂L⁴. All these complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, X-ray crystallography, conductometry measurement, FT-IR, electronic spectra and mass (FAB) spectrometry. Thermal behaviour of the complexes has been studied by TGA, DTA and DSC. Electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate octahedral stereochemistry of manganese (III) complexes, while non-electrolytic behaviour complexes indicate the absence of counter ion.
