Abstract
A practical microwave-assisted, one-pot method for the construction of 4-acetyl-2-phenyl-5-aryl-3-pyrazolidinones via a tandem reaction between phenylhydrazine, aromatic aldehydes, and but-1-ene-1,3-dione (acylketene), in moderate to good yields, is reported. When methylhydrazine and 4-methylphenylhydrazine hydrochloride were used instead of phenylhydrazine, the reaction led to the formation of 3-oxobutanohydrazide derivatives.

- 30 General Procedure for the Synthesis of Compounds 4 and 6A solution of aryl(alkyl)hydrazine (1 mmol) and aldehydes 2 (1.2 mmol) was stirred in toluene (5 mL) for 10 min. Then, 3 (0.19 g, 1.3 mmol) was added, irradiated under microwave at 900 W. After completion of the reaction [about 1 h; TLC monitoring (EtOAc–hexane, 1: 5)], the solvent was evaporated, and the residue was purified by column chromatography [silica gel (230–400 mesh; Merck), EtOAc–hexane, 1:5] to give pure product.4-Acetyl-2,5-diphenylpyrazolidin-3-one (4a)Yellow powder; mp 124–126 °C; yield: 0.23 g (83%).
