Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In a 25 mL sealed tube, ethyl 5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate (0.25 g, 1.0 eq.) was dissolved in ethanol (5 mL) at RT. Hydrazine hydrate (1 mL, 5 eq.) was introduced dropwise at RT and the reaction mixture was heated at 120° C. for 20 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure (40° C., 20 mm Hg) to afford the crude 5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbohydrazide (0.24 g) which was used without further purification in the following step.
