Abstract:
In the presence of triethylamine, cycloaddition reaction of enamine 1 with hydrazonoyl halides 2 followed by dimethylamine elimination was achieved, yielding the corresponding 1,3,4‐trisubstituted pyrazoles 4 . Coupling of enamine 1 with aromatic diazonium salts afforded 2‐(arylhydrazono)‐2‐(4‐nitrophenyl)acetaldehyde 9 in good yield. Refluxing the phenyl hydrazone 9a with chloroacetone in ethanol in the presence of triethylamine afforded 1,3,5‐trisubstituted pyrazole 12a , formed via intermediate 11a. Reaction of 9a with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in ethanol in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate yielded oxime 13a which was irradiated in a microwave oven in the presence of acetic acid to afford a mixture of 15a and 16a.
