An efficient and regioselective synthesis of 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles] from 4-alkoxy-1,1,1-trihaloalk-3-en-2-ones

Abstract

This work describes the regioselective synthesis of two new series of 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-4,5-dihydro-5-hydroxy-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles], where the 3-substituents are H, Me, C6H5, 4-FC6H4, 4-ClC6H4, 4-BrC6H4, 4-NO2C6H4, 4,4′-BiPh, and 2-furyl, in a one-pot methodology with ethanol as solvent, from the reaction of 4-alkoxy-4-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-1,1,1-trihaloalk-3-en-2-ones with oxalyldihydrazide (51–89%). Complementarily, the dehydration reactions of five examples of the described oxalylbispyrazolines are also reported, which furnished the respective 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles] in 53–78% yields without the two C(O)–N bond cleavages.
