Significance

The one-pot synthesis of pyrazoles by Sonogashira-type reaction of acyl chlorides 1 with substituted acetylenes 2, followed by cyclocondensation in presence of various hydrazines 3 is reported. The procedure is rather simple and convenient; however, it requires optimization, and preparative yields vary from poor to excellent. The method may be used for pyrimidine synthesis as well, as shown for a single example. In this case acetamidine hydrochloride 7 serves as a third coupling reagent.
