Synthesis of New Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines by Reaction of β,γ-Unsaturated γ-Alkoxy-α-keto Esters with N-Unsubstituted 5-Aminopyrazoles

Abstract

The reaction of β,γ-unsaturated γ-alkoxy-α-keto esters with N-unsubstituted 5-aminopyrazoles was investigated. The reaction proceeds with high regioselectivity and is considered as an effective­ method for the preparation of new pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines bearing an ester function in the 7-position. The obtained drug-like compounds have a great potential for medicinal chemistry as they closely resemble the structure of several marketed pharmaceuticals.

Key words

heterocycles - esters - regioselectivity - pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines - 5-aminopyrazoles
