Pyrazoles have attracted great attention in organic and medicinal chemistry, due to their proven utility as synthetic intermediates for the preparation of diverse bioactive compounds, of coordination complexes, as well as in the design of functional materials. Consequently , the synthesis of functionalized pyrazoles is an important focus of research for synthetic organic chemists. Likewise, fuse d pyrazoles such as pyrazolo[1,5 - a]pyrimidines and pyrazolo[3,4 - b]pyridines have been widely studied due to their varied biological and physicochemical applications based on the important electronic properties of th ese N - heterocycles. Therefore, the preparation of these fused heterocycles and of their functionalized derivatives is of notable interest to both uncover novel derivatives and explore new applications.

    Michael Addition and Derivatives of 2-Carboxamido-3-phenylindenone' E. Campaigne and David A. Templer Department of Chemistry Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana 47405 Introduction Recently we have submitted several reports (6,7,8) dealing with the synthesis and reactions of 3-substituted 2-carboxamidoindenones. Among the reactions which these compounds undergo is a fascile Michael addition, and we wish to report here the addi- tion of a variety of nucleophiles to 2-carboxamido-3-phenylindenone (1) and some of the products derived from these compounds. The Michael reaction, now one hundred years old, is a useful synthetic tool that has led to a vast amount of research on its scope and limitations. It is the subject of an extensive review (1). The reaction generally refers to the addition of a nucleophile to a conjugated double bond which involves a series of reversible equilibrium reactions. Thus the reverse of Michael addition may occur, and products may be unstable on isolation. The synthesis of indenones via the cyclization of ylidenemalononitriles has been extensively studied in our laboratories (5). The first reported Michael addition to an in- denone was rather recent. In 1960, Koelsch (9) found that 2-carbethoxy-3-phenyl-l- indenone reacts readily with a variety of carbanions and other nucleophiles to give Michael adducts, but he was unable to alkylate the intermediate ions formed by these reactions. Addition of hydroxide, alkoxide, or amines led to the isolation of unstable crude ad- ducts, which reverted to the starting indenones on standing or in solution (10). Discussion The preparation of 3-cyano-3-phenyl-2-carboxamidoindanone (2a, Scheme 1) by the addition of cyanide to 1 has been previously reported (6).

Their synthesis method using a structural modification of 3-[5-(4-nitrophenyl)furan-2-yl]pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde to the corresponding alkenyl derivatives under the action of malononitrile, ethyl cyanoacetate, cyanoacetamide, and thioxoimidazolidine is proposed. The hydrazones, (thio)semicarbazones, and oximes were obtained by the condensation of corresponding aldehydes with hydrazides, (thio)semicarbazides, and hydroxylamine. The synthesized compounds' composition and structure were determined by elemental analysis, IR, and 1H NMR spectra. The fact existence of a mixture of E/Z-isomers among the series of obtained hydrazones of 1-phenyl-4-pyrazolecarbaldehydes was determined, and the quantitative ratio of geometric isomers was determined using 1H NMR spectroscopy data.

Received: 22 November 2017; Accepted: 5 January 2018; Published: 12 January 2018 Abstract: Pyrazole and its derivatives are considered a pharmacologically important active scaffold that possesses almost all types of pharmacological activities. The presence of this nucleus in pharmacological agents of diverse therapeutic categories such as celecoxib, a potent anti-inflammatory, the antipsychotic CDPPB, the anti-obesity drug rimonabant, difenamizole, an analgesic, betazole, a H2-receptor agonist and the antidepressant agent fezolamide have proved the pharmacological potential of the pyrazole moiety. Owing to this diversity in the biological field, this nucleus has attracted the attention of many researchers to study its skeleton chemically and biologically. This review highlights the different synthesis methods and the pharmacological properties of pyrazole derivatives.
