Hydrazines acyl substituted, reduction

Condensation of ethyl acetoacetate with phenyl hydrazine gives the pyrazolone, 58. Methylation by means of methyl iodide affords the prototype of this series, antipyrine (59). Reaction of that compound with nitrous acid gives the product of substitution at the only available position, the nitroso derivative (60) reduction affords another antiinflammatory agent, aminopyrine (61). Reductive alkylation of 61 with acetone in the presence of hydrogen and platinum gives isopyrine (62). Acylation of 61 with the acid chloride from nicotinic acid affords nifenazone (63). Acylation of 61 with 2-chloropropionyl chloride gives the amide, 64 displacement of the halogen with dimethylamine leads to aminopropylon (65). ...

Organic hydrazines or diazanes are substitution products of NH2—NH2 and have many properties similar to those of amines in being basic and forming acyl derivatives as well as undergoing alkylation and condensations with carbonyl compounds (Section 16-4C). Unsymmetrical hydrazines can be prepared by careful reduction of /V-nitrosamines. l,l-Dimethyldiazane is prepared in this way for use as a rocket fuel ...
