Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(naphthalen-2-ylhydrazono)-4H-pyrazole-3,5-diamine was prepared using 110 mg (0.5 mmol) of 2-[(naphthalen-2-yl)hydrazono]malononitrile, which was derived from 2-aminonaphthalene (143 mg, 1.0 mmol) and malononitrile (1.5 mmol), and hydrazine hydrate. The hydrazine hydrate was added to the solution at a temperature of 75° C. despite the fact that the starting material had not fully dissolved. The solution cleared briefly and then a precipitate formed. The resulting solid was isolated by filtration, washed with ethanol, and dried to yield 86 mg (67%) of the compound as a tan coloured solid.
