Sodium → 3-Cyclopropyl-5-nitro-1H-pyrazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2.7 g of sodium hydrate in 454 ml of water 7.1 g (0.058 mol) of 3-cyclopropyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole and 46.5 g of sodium hydrogenocarbonate were added at 0° C. After 10 minutes a solution of 337 ml of acetone in 221 ml of water and a solution of 130 g (0.21 mol) of oxone in 580 ml of water were contemporaneously dropped under vigorous stirring. After 4 hours at the same temperature the reaction is quenched with a saturated solution of sodium sulfite and extracted with ethylacetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness to give 4.6 g (52% yield) of the title compound.
