Synthesis and Oxidative Cleavage of 1- and 2-Alkyl Derivatives of (exo,exo)-5,6-Dihydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-4,7-methanoindazoles

Abstract

Reaction of hydrazine with exo,exo-3-hydroxymethylene-5,6-isopropylidenedioxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one led to norbornenepyrazole 7, which was converted to its 1- and 2-alkyl derivatives. Deprotection of the vicinal hydroxyls, oxidative cleavage of the resulting glycol and reduction of the dialdehyde so obtained afforded 1- and 2-alkylcyclopenta[c]pyrazole-4,6-dimeth-anols, which are of interest as intermediates in the preparation of nucleoside analogues derived from 1H- and 2H-cyclopenta[c]pyrazole.
