Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-amino-3-cyano-1-(2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-4-(furan-3-yl)pyrazole (0.095 g) in acetonitrile (6 ml) was added N-chlorosuccinimide (0.0345 g). The mixture was left at room temperature for 1.5 hours and then poured into ether (50 ml) and water (50 ml). The layers were separated and the aqueous phase extracted with a second portion of ether (50 ml). The combined organic layers were washed with water (25 ml), then dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (10 g) eluted with dichloromethane. Combination and evaporation of suitable fractions gave the title compound as a white solid, m.p. 153° C.
