Abstract

Synthesis of 1,3-diarylpyrazoles from commercial substrates and/or simple transformations is still underrated. In this report, we have developed a method for copper-promoted coupling of propiophenones and arylhydrazines. The reactions afforded substituted pyrazoles in the presence of TEMPO oxidant, acetic acid additive, and DMF solvent. A number of functionalities were compatible with reaction conditions, including halogens, methoxy, trifluoromethyl, and nitro groups. An indazole could be obtained if an electron-poor propiophenone was used.
