2 groups, pyrazole arylations

The pyrazole ring is generally stable to oxidation and side-chains are oxidized to carbonyl groups. l-Aryl-3-methylpyr-azoles 197 react with ozone to yield 1,3,4-oxadiazolinones 198. 

A large variety of newer poly(ether imide)s has been described. Included among these are perfluorinated polymers (96), poly(ester ether imide)s (97), poly(ether imide)s derived from A/,Ar-diamino-l,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxyHcbisimide (98), and poly(arylene ether imide ketone)s (99). In addition, many other heterocyHc groups have been introduced into polyether systems, eg, poly(pyrazole ether)s (100) and poly(aryl ether phenylquinoxaLine)s (101) poly(aryl ether oxazole)s with trifluoromethyl groups (102) and polyethers with other heterolinkages, eg, poly(arylether azine)s (103). 

If the fV-aryl group is strongly activated, then it can be removed in nucleophilic substitution reactions in which the azole anion acts as leaving group. Thus l-t2,4-dinitrophenyl)pyrazole reacts with N2H4 or NaOMe. 

From UV studies of 4-phenyl-, 4-nitro- and 4-nitroso-pyrazoles, Habraken et al. (67RTC1249,72JHC939) conclude that the 4-pyrazolyl group acts as an electron-donating group. UV spectra of pairs of 1-aryl- and 2-aryl-indazoles and their utility in the determination of isomeric structures are discussed in (67BSF2619) many other UV data on indazole derivatives can be found in (71PMH(3)67). 

Recently, the pyrazole group containing bisphenols have been synthesized from activated aromatic dihalides and 3,5-bis (4-hydroxy phenyl)-4-phenyl pyrazole or 3,5-bis(4-hydroxy phenyl)-1,4-diphenyl pyrazole. A novel synthesis of imido aryl containing bisphenols has been reported [32]. N-substituted l,4-bis(4-hydroxy phenyl)-2,3-naphthalimides were prepared from phenolphthalein and copolymerized with aromatic sulfone or ketone difluorides to obtain the poly(imidoaryl ether) sulfones/ ketones.

Merck has recently utilised a furo[2,3-b]pyridine core (554) as a bioisosteric replacement for the pyrazole scaffold of rimonabant (382) [328]. The same basic pharmacophore, that of two halo-substituted aryl groups and a third hydrophobic motif proximal to a hydrogen-bond acceptor, can be witnessed in the benzodioxole-based compounds, such as (555), disclosed by Roche [329]. 

Anthranilide derivatives in which an aryl group was directly connected to the anthranilide unit were also reported [63]. Similarly, anthra-nilides connected to a five-membered heterocycle such as thiazole, thiophene, or pyrazole were also covered by the patent literature [64]. Representative examples of these two classes are analogs 16 and 17. 

Reaction of l-azirine-3-methylaciylates (155) with imidazoles and pyrazoles under mild conditions results in the formation of 2-aza-1,3-dienes (156), which are useful as dienes in hetero Diels-Alder reactions with electron-deficient dienophiles <99JOC49>. When the related methyl 2-aryl-2ff-azirine-3-carboxylate (157) was used as fee substrate, reaction with an amine induced a ting opening by addition of the amino group onto fee C=N bond followed by cleavage to provide enediamine 158 <99JCS(P1)1305>. 

Electrophilic substitution occurs readily in iV-phenyl groups, e.g., 1-phenyl-pyrazoles, -imidazoles and -pyrazolinones are all nitrated and halogenated at the para position. The aryl group is attacked preferentially when the reactions are carried out in strongly acidic media where the azole ring is protonated.
