Abstract
Abstract The reaction of ethyl ethoxymethylenecyanoacetate with its hydrazino derivative in the presence of pyridine in ethanol at room temperature gave ethyl (4-ethoxycarbonyl-5-aminopyrazol-1-yl)methylenecyanoacetate(6) and two geometric isomers of ethyl (4-ethoxycarbonylpyrazol-5-ylamino)methylenecyanoacetate(7). Compound 6 itself, under the same conditions, rearranged to compound 7. Both compounds, 6 and 7, upon heating cyclized exclusively to the same product, diethyl 7-aminopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3,6-dicarboxylate(8). From the results of other combination reactions on methylenecyanoacetic ester homologs, a plausible reaction mechanism involving a rearrangement is discussed.
