(0.02 mole) solid anhydrous potassium carbonate was added. The mixture was heated at the reflux temperature with stirring for 10 minutes and after cooling, 1.85 g. (0.011 mole) of 2-bromoethyl acetate was added. This reaction mixture was heated at the reflux temperature for 12 hrs. cooled, filtered, and the acetone removed under reduced pressure. The resultant oil consisted of a mixture of the desired acetate and the corresponding alcohol. The mixture was dissolved in pyridine (15 ml.) and treated with acetic anhydride (3.06 g., 0.03 mole) at 0° C. This reaction mixture was kept at about 25° C. overnight, and then poured into 200 ml. of ice water. The precipitate that formed was collected on a filter, and washed with water. After drying and recrystallizing from hexane there was obtained 3,4,5-tribromopyrazole-1-ethanol acetate (ester) having a melting point at 64° to 67° C.
