Abstract
Reaction of-aryl- N-phenyl nitrones with 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one in the presence of a catalytic amount of silica tungstic acid in EtOH/H2O afforded, unexpectedly, high yields of bis(3-hydroxy-1-phenylpyrazolyl)-arylmethanes instead of the two possible 1,3-addition products. This is the first report of the synthesis of bis(3-hydroxy-1-phenylpyrazolyl)-arylmethanes via the reaction of nitrones and a pyrazolin-5-one. A possible mechanism for the process is suggested.
