Abstract
A new and convenient method for the synthesis of bis(pyrazolyl)methanes by one-pot tandem Knoevenagel–Michael reaction of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone with aryl, heteroaryl, or alkyl aldehydes in the presence of 2-hydroxyethylammonium acetate (2-HEAA) as a task-specific ionic liquid is described. This method was also successfully applied for the synthesis of 2-pyrazolyl-1-nitroalkanes by Michael addition of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone with β-nitrostyrenes in short reaction times. The present protocol offers several advantages such as using a reusable and cost-effective ionic liquid, an environmentally benign reaction media, being amenable to scale-up and good to high yields of the products.
