m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → Difpas-pyrazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(difluoromethyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]pyrazole (1 g) and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (0.56 g) in dichloromethane (23 ml) was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was washed with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated. The oily residue was crystallized from ethanol to give crystals of 3-(difluoromethyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-[4-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl]pyrazole (0.82 g).
