Piperidine → 3-Cyclopropyl-4-[(4,5-dimethylpyrrol-2-yl)methylene]-2-pyrazolin-5-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A reaction mixture of 3-cyclopropyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (790 mg, 6.3 mmol), 4,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (800 mg, 6.5 mmol), and piperidine 100 mg, in ethanol 50 mL was stirred at 90° C. for 3.5 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The solid residue was purified by flash column chromatography using (3:7) ethyl acetate:hexane as the mobile phase, then further purified by recrystallization from toluene.
