Abstract:
5-Amino-3-(cyanomethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile, prepared by reaction of malononitrile dimer with hydrazine, smoothly react with chloroacetyl chloride to afford 2-chloro-N-(4-cyano-3-(cyanomethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)acetamide in good yield. The latter easily react with 3-cyanopyridine-2-thiolates to give hybrid molecules bearing nicotinonitrile and pyrazole units.
