Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-aminopyrazole (20 g, 0.24 mol) in H2O (36 mL), at 5-10° C., was slowly added NaHCO3 (9.1 g, mol, 3 eq) and then Ac2O (6.79 ml, 2 eq). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 8 hr. It was cooled down to r.t. and was left standing at this temperature for 12 hr to allow crystallization. The white solid was filtered (12.9 g) and the mother liquor volume was reduced. A second batch of white solid (3.4 g) was obtained after crystallization. The two batches were combined to give the title compound (16.3 g, 54%).
