Regioselective Synthesis of 1,3,5-Substituted Pyrazoles from Acetylenic Ketones and Hydrazines

Abstract

The synthesis of diversely substituted 1,3,5-substituted pyrazoles from the reaction of acetylenic ketones with substituted hydrazines is reported. The reactions were shown to be highly regio­selective regardless of the nature of the substituents in the substrates and afforded essentially single pyrazole isomers in excellent yields.
