Hydrazine, reaction with ketones

There are two methods for the introduction of a hydroxyalkyl group at position 5 of the pyrazol-3-one ring. Schmidt and Zimmer converted furanediones 258a-k into arylmethylenepyrazol-3-reaction with hydrazine hydrate or methylhydrazine (83Jmechanism proposed for the reaction involves nucleophilic attack of the hydrazine on the ketone carbonyl, followed by attack on the ester carbonyl and ring opening of the... 

Wolff-Kishner reaction (Section 19.9) The conversion of an aldehyde or ketone into an alkane by reaction with hydrazine and base. 

The same reaction, carried out with conventional heating at the same temperature, took more that 6 h to give comparable yields of the products. Dihydropyrazoles were also obtained by microwave-assisted reaction of poly-substituted vinyl ketones 122 with hydrazines, followed by reaction of the unstable pyrazole 123 with electrophiles (Scheme 43) [80]. 

Parallel array synthesis was used to access the 3-aryl-tetrahydro-l,2-diazepines 90 (and other related compounds) by cyclisation of the chloro ketones 88 on reaction with hydrazine to give 89 followed by sulfonamide formation the Si-TrisAmine was added at the end as a scavenger to remove any unreacted arylsulfonyl chloride remaining <06MCL3777>. 

This Asian species is a major agricultural pest. The pheromone has been proposed to consist of three male-specific compounds, only one of which, (Z)-exo-a-bergamotenal 150, has been reported in the literature [114]. The racemic compound was synthesized starting from farnesoic acid chloride 146 (Scheme 25) [114]. Thus, the vinyl ketene prepared from acid chloride 146 underwent 2+2 cycloaddition to give bicyclic ketone 147. The ketone function was removed by reaction with hydrazine followed by treatment of the resulting hy-... 

Most reactions with hydrazine are carried out with aldehydes and ketones in the presence of alkali. The reduction proper is preceded by formation of hydrazones that decompose in alkaline medium at elevated temperatures to nitrogen and compounds in which the carbonyl oxygen has been replaced by two hydrogens. The same results are obtained by alkaline-thermal decomposition of ready-made hydrazones of the carbonyl compounds. Both reactions are referred to as Wolff-Kizhner reduction [280]. 

The regioselectivity of pyrazole 55 formation is completely the reverse of that of pyrazoline 57 in the reaction of ketones 54 with hydrazines without DPPH. In addition, heterocycles 56 cannot be obtained from 57 by the action of DPPH. These facts show that the radical-initiated treatment of a, 3-unsaturated ketones with hydrazines does not occur via the initial pyrazoline 57 formation. 

A modified procedure for the preparation of pyrazoles includes the solventless condensation of diketones and hydrazines in the presence of a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid at ambient temperature <2004GC90>. 1,3-Diketones can be synthesized directly from ketones and acid chlorides and then converted in situ into pyrazoles by the addition of hydrazine <2006OL2675>. The possible modifications to the 1,3-dioxo component in the reaction with hydrazines include the use of -ketoesters, -ketonitriles, -halocarbonyl compounds, -hydroxyketones, -sulfonylketones, and 1,3-dihaloalkanes . 

Alkylphthalimides, preparation, 676 reaction with hydrazine, 676 Alkyl sulfates, alkylation, of acetylenes by, 80 of alcohols by, 228 of amines by, 667-669 of 6-keto esters by, 347 of ketones by, 339 of malonic esters by, 489 of nitriles by, 600... 

Dehydrative cyclization of 3-(5-carboxy)-5-phenyl-4-(pyrrol-l-yI)l,2,4-triazole (508) with poly phosphoric acid gave (82G345) the 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-/7]l,3,4-thiadiazine (509). Ring transformation of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles to 7//-l,2,4-triazolo[3,4-/>]l,3,4-thiadiazines (507) was reported by Sasaki et al. (82JOC2757) through the reaction of [(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio]ketones (123) with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of acetic acid. 

Various groups substituted between the two carbonyl groups of 1,3-ketones give highly substituted pyrazoles on reaction with hydrazine. Eor example, 4-alkoxypyrazoles 519 were synthesized from 3,5-heptadiones 518 with... 

Alkynyl ketones can be formed from addition of alkynyllithium or Grignard reagents to phthalimides and then the products converted into pyrazoles by reaction with hydrazines. For example, A -alkyl-substituted phthalimides 633 were easily transformed to mono-, di-, or trisubstituted pyrazoles 634 via a one-pot addition/decyclization/cyclocon-densation process (Equation 131) <2002J(P1)207>. A -Alkyl-substituted phthalimides 635 were easily converted into di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted pyrazoles 636 via a one-pot addition-decyclization-cyclocondensation process (Equation 132) <2003H(60)2499>. 

Oximes and Hydrazones.—The characteristic aldehyde and ketone reactions with hydroxyl amine and phenyl hydrazine, depending upon the carbonyl group, = C = O, take place with the aromatic aldehydes and ketones just as they do with the aliphatic and yield oximes and hydrazoneSy the former being of especial importance. 

For the preparation of hydrazones, Schonberg " recommends that equivalent amounts of the ketone and hydrazine be refluxed in -butanol (b.p. 117.7°) for 2 hrs. Use of ethanol requires a longer reflux period and use of ethylene or propylene glycol may lead to side reactions. Thus on applying the glycol procedure for conversion of fluorenone to the hydrazone, Baltzly et al. observed formation of considerable fluorene (interference by an unusually facile Wolff-Kishner reaction). On refluxing the reactants in n-butanol for 4 hrs., the hydrazone was obtained in 67% yield. However, a superior method for the preparation of hydrazones involves reaction of the ketone with N,N-dimethylhydrazine which see) followed by an exchange reaction with hydrazine.
