4‐Bromo‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrazole in Heterocyclic Synthesis: Unexpected Polysubstituted Pyrazole Derivatives

Unexpected 4,4′‐dipyrazolomethylidene ( 7 ), 4‐amino‐3a‐bromo‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrazolo3,4‐b]pyridin‐6‐thione ( 9 ), 4,4′‐dipyrazolyl ( 18 ), ethyl 4‐(3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrazole‐4‐yl)fuoro2,3‐c]pyrazole‐4‐carboxylate ( 25 ), as well as the expected fuoro2,3‐c]pyrazole derivatives ( 15 ), ( 20 ) and ( 28 ) were isolated from a one‐pot reaction of 4‐bromo‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrazole ( 1 ) with some readily available reagents.
