Sulfuryl chloride → 3-(Difluoromethyl)-1-methyl-1 H-pyrazole-4-carbonyl chloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

The solution of 16 g (100 mol) of 1-methyl-3-difluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde, 13.5 g (100 mmol) of sulphuryl chloride and 0.2 g of 2,2-azoisobutyronitrile in 50 ml of chlorobenzene was stirred at 70-80° C. for 6 h. The reaction solution was concentrated. 18.8 g of the product (95% yield) was obtained as an oil with a purity (GC) of 98%.
