Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(chlorophenyl)-3-oxo-propionitrile (4.0 g, 22.2 mmol) in absolute ethanol (21 mL) was added hydrazine hydrate (6.5 mL, 134 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 15 hours, then it was concentrated in vacuo and purified on silica gel with 0-10% MeOH in CH2Cl2 as eluent to give 3.8 g (87% yield) of 5-amino-3-(2-chlorophenyl)pyrazole as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO) δ: 11.7 (broad s, 1H), 7.66 (d, 1H), 7.48 (d, 1H), 7.35 (t, 1H), 7.30 (t, 1H), 5.83 (s, 1H), 4.84 (broad s, 2H); HPLC/MS m/z: 194.1 [MH]+.
