Synthesis of new pyrazole-1,2,3-triazole dyads

An efficient two step synthetic methodology of new 5(4)-aryl-4(5)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5(3)-yl]-1H-1,2,3-triazole dyads was established. The reaction of (E)-2-styryl-4H-chromen-4-ones, used as building blocks, with sodium azide, gave 4(5)-aryl-5(4)-(chromon-2-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazoles bearing either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents in their styryl moiety which upon reaction with hydrazine hydrate afforded the expected pyrazoles in moderate to very good yields.
