Consecutive Three-Component Synthesis of 3-(Hetero)Aryl-1H-pyrazoles with Propynal Diethylacetal as a Three-Carbon Building Block

Abstract

A novel consecutive three-component synthesis of 3-(hetero)aryl-1H-pyrazoles via room temperature Sonogashira arylation of propynal diethylacetal used as a propargyl aldehyde synthetic equivalent has been disclosed. The final acetal cleavage-cyclocondensation with hydrazine hydrochloride at 80 °C rapidly furnishes the title compounds in a one-pot fashion.
