Sulfuric Acid → HCID 178434679, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (15.0 g, above) was added to stirred concentrated sulfuric acid (47 mL, 95%) cooled with cold water bath. After the addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours before it was poured with stirring into a mixture of ice and water. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with cold water to remove excess sulfuric acid, and dried in a vacuum desiccator to give 5-amino-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid amide. (Yield 19.6 g).
