TL;DR: The catalytic C-H arylation combined with the protecting group transposition and N-alkylation provides a rapid route to fully substituted pyrazoles with complete regiocontrol of all substituents.
Abstract: Pyrazoles are important azole heteroarenes frequently found in pharmaceuticals and protein ligands, and there has been a growing interest in new synthetic methods for their preparation. We report the first catalytic intermolecular C-H arylation of pyrazoles, namely SEM-protected pyrazoles and N-alkylpyrazoles, which lays the foundation for a new approach to the synthesis of complex arylated pyrazoles, where new arene rings are directly attached to predetermined positions of the heteroarene nucleus ("topologically obvious synthesis"). Through a systematic search, we identified a palladium-pivalate catalytic system as the most effective protocol and mapped the reactivity of all three C-H bonds of the pyrazole (C-5 > C-4 >> C-3). To circumvent the low reactivity of the C-3 position, we developed a "SEM switch", which transposes the SEM-protecting group from one nitrogen to the other in one step, and in the process transforms the unreactive C-3 position to the reactive C-5 position. The SEM switch thus enables sequential arylation of C-5 and C-3 position, providing rapid access to protected or free 3,4,5-triarylpyrazoles (the C-4 arene ring is readily introduced by bromination and Suzuki coupling). Furthermore, N-alkylation of SEM-protected pyrazoles allows for regioselective introduction of the amine substituent, addressing the low regioselectivity of N-alkylation of pyrazoles lacking sufficient steric bias. Thus, the catalytic C-H arylation combined with the protecting group transposition and N-alkylation provides a rapid route to fully substituted pyrazoles with complete regiocontrol of all substituents. The particular strength of this strategy is the ability to commence the synthesis from either the parent pyrazole or practically any pyrazole intermediate.

TL;DR: In this article, 4-cyanobenzylideneamino antipyrine (CBAP) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-VIS and X-ray single crystal diffraction techniques.
Abstract: 4-(4-cyanobenzylideneamino)antipyrine (CBAP) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-VIS and X-ray single crystal diffraction techniques. Crystallographic study reveals that the compound adopts trans configuration about the Schiff base imine double bond. The substituted p-cyanophenyl ring indirectly linked to the pyrazoline ring by the C=N double bond is almost coplanar with the pyrazole ring, whereas the phenyl ring directly attached to the pyrazoline ring forms an effective dihedral angle. Density functional calculations have been carried out to optimize and to characterize the title compound by using B3LYP method at 6-31G(d) basis set. The calculated results show that the optimized geometry can well reproduce the crystal structural parameters and the theoretical vibrational frequencies show good agreement with experimental values. On the basis of theoretical vibrational analyses, the thermodynamic properties (standard heat capacities, standard entropies, and standard ent...

TL;DR: Some of the compounds showed promising antioxidant activity in vitro and cytotoxic activity against DLA cells and EAC cells.
Abstract: The aim of the present work was to synthesise coumarinyl heterocycles and to elucidate the potential role of these compounds as antioxidants and cytotoxic agents against Dalton's lymphoma ascites tumour cells (DLA) and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells (EAC). The synthesis of coumarin derivatives containing pyrazole, pyrazolone, thiazolidin-4-one, 5-carboxymethyl-4-thiazolidinone and 3-acetyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole ring is reported. 4-Methylcoumarinyl-7-oxyacetic acid hydrazide (1) reacted with arylazopropanes or hydrazono-3-oxobutyrate derivatives to form pyrazole (3a-c) and pyrazolone derivatives (5a-c). Heterocyclisation of Schiff's bases of 1 with thioglycolic acid, thiomalic acid or acetic anhydride afforded novel heterocyclic derivatives 4-thiazolidinones (7a-c), 5-carboxymethyl-4-thiazolidinones (8a-c) and oxadiazoles (9a-c), respectively. Some of the compounds showed promising antioxidant activity in vitro and cytotoxic activity against DLA cells and EAC cells.

TL;DR: In this article, the most pertinent general features of pyrazoles, in comparison with other heterocycles that are also popular ligands, and some aspects of the supramolecular chemistry of free pyrazole are also included.
Abstract: This Microreview deals with the supramolecular chemistry of pyrazole metal complexes, in particular, complexes of pyrazoles with a nonsubstituted N–H group, which are able to engage in hydrogen bonding. The most pertinent general features of pyrazoles, in comparison with other heterocycles that are also popular ligands, and some aspects of the supramolecular chemistry of free pyrazoles are also included. In addition to the general supramolecular chemistry of pyrazole complexes, sections of this Microreview are devoted to liquid crystals, self-assembled species, and hosts for anions.

TL;DR: In this article, the titanium-catalyzed 3-component coupling of an alkyne, isonitrile, and amine can be used to generate tautomers of 1,3-diimines.
Abstract: The titanium-catalyzed 3-component coupling of an alkyne, isonitrile, and amine can be used to generate tautomers of 1,3-diimines. These diimines produced in situ undergo cyclization with hydrazine and hydrazine derivatives in a one-pot procedure to provide pyrazoles. Seventeen examples of pyrazoles are provided using this one-pot, 4-component procedure from simple starting materials. The regioselectivity of the alkyne addition can be controlled in some cases with catalyst architecture, and regioselectivity of monosubsituted hydrazines to unsymmetrical 1,3-diimines is discussed. This multicomponent coupling strategy was applied to the synthesis of withasomnine in an efficient procedure, which gave the natural product in 24% overall yield from 4-pentyn-1-ol.
