Novel and Efficient Synthesis of 4-Indazolyl-1,3,4-trisubstituted Pyrazole Derivatives

In the present study, 1-(4,5-dihydro-3,6-dimethyl-4-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3aH-indazol-5-yl)methanone derivatives (9–12) and isoxazoleyl (13–16) have been synthesized by the condensation of 1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1–4) with acetyl acetone via Knoevenagel/Michael/aldol reactions in a sequential manner to yield intermediate cyclohexanone (5–8). The intermediates (5–8) treated with NH₂NH₂ · H₂O/NH₂OH · HCl afforded 4-indazolyl-1,3,4-trisubstituted pyrazole and isoxazoleyl derivatives. All of these compounds are reported for the first time, and the structures of these compounds were confirmed by means of infrared, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and mass spectroscopy.
