Synthesis of 3-pyrazolines

Recent Literature


A catalytic asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes with acyclic azomethine imines generated in situ from the corresponding aldehydes and hydrazides was realized using Cu(I)/pybox and axially chiral dicarboxylic acid cocatalysts.

The use of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) enables a versatile approach to isoxazolines and pyrazolines by the cyclization of alkyne substrates under mild reaction conditions. A deprotection/functionalization method is described, leading to a substituted pyrazoline in good diastereoselectivity.
