Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of methyl 3-nitro-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate (10 g, 58.4 mmol) and 10% Pd on charcoal (1.2 g) in methanol (150 Ml) was stirred under 50 psi pressure of hydrogen gas for 16 h. The reaction mixture was filtered over a bed of Celite and the filtrate was concentrated to give 9.2 g of methyl 3-amino-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate which was used as such in the next reaction. MS (ESI) m/z 142.3 (M+H).
