Abstract
Pyrazoles have potential applications in the agrochemical and medicinal chemistry industries as pesticides, anti-inflammatory medications, and antitumor drugs. Fluorinated fused-ring pyrazoles may also possess medicinally useful properties. Herein, we report the acid-catalyzed synthesis of a new tricyclic, trifluoromethylated indenopyrazole, 3-methyl-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one, from 2-acetyl-1,3-indanedione and 4-trifluoromethylphenylhydrazine. This isomeric pyrazole was obtained in yields ranging from 4–24%. NMR spectroscopic characterization and elemental analysis support the structural assignment, identity, and purity of the product.
