Participants

Reaction Steps

3,5-Diphenyl-2-pyrazoline (21.9 parts) is dissolved in ethylene dichloride (75 parts by volume). There is next added 5% palladium on carbon catalyst (4 parts containing 40% water) is added and the mixture is heated at reflux for 8 hours. There is obtained 3,5-diphenylpyrazole in a 79.3% yield whose melting point ranges from 196°C. to 200°C.
