Abstract

A transition-metal-free [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between diazoacetonitrile and nitroolefins provides multisubstituted cyanopyrazoles. This protocol offers mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, good yields, and regioselectivities. An one-pot three-component reaction of nitroolefins with diazoacetonitrile and alkyl halides also provides multisubstituted cyanopyrazoles in good to high yields.
