Pyrazole is an organic compound with the formula (CH)3N2H. It is a heterocycle characterized as an azole with a 5-membered ring of three carbon atoms and two adjacent nitrogen atoms, which are in ortho-substitution. Pyrazole itself has few applications but many substituted pyrazoles are of commercial interest.

Properties

[edit]

Pyrazole is a weak base, with pKb 11.5 (pKa of the conjugate acid 2.49 at 25 °C).[3] According to X-ray crystallography, the compound is planar. The two C-N distances are similar, both near 1.33 Å[4]

Substituted pyrazoles

[edit]

Pyrazoles are also a class of compounds that have the ring C3N2 with adjacent nitrogen atoms.[5] Notable drugs containing a pyrazole ring are celecoxib (celebrex) and the anabolic steroid stanozolol.

Preparation and reactions

[edit]

Pyrazoles are synthesized by the reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with hydrazine and subsequent dehydrogenation:[6]

Substituted pyrazoles are prepared by condensation of 1,3-diketones with hydrazine (Knorr-type reactions).[7] For example, acetylacetone and hydrazine gives 3,5-dimethylpyrazole:[8]

CH3C(O)CH2C(O)CH3   +   N2H4   →   (CH3)2C3HN2H   +   2 H2O

A wide variety of pyrazoles can be made so:[7]

History

[edit]

The term pyrazole was given to this class of compounds by German Chemist Ludwig Knorr in 1883.[9] In a classical method developed by German chemist Hans von Pechmann in 1898, pyrazole was synthesized from acetylene and diazomethane.[10]

Conversion to scorpionates

[edit]

Pyrazoles react with potassium borohydride to form a class of ligands known as scorpionate. Pyrazole itself reacts with potassium borohydride at high temperatures (~200 °C) to form a tridentate ligand known as Tp ligand:

3,5-Diphenyl-1H-pyrazole

[edit]

3,5-Diphenyl-1H-pyrazole is produced when (E)-1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-one is reacted with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of elemental sulfur[11] or sodium persulfate,[12] or by using a hydrazone in which case an azine is produced as a by-product.[13]

Occurrence and uses

[edit]
Celecoxib, a pyrazole-derived analgesic

In 1959, the first natural pyrazole, 1-pyrazolyl-alanine, was isolated from seeds of watermelons.[14][15]

In medicine, derivatives of pyrazole are widely used,[16] including celecoxib and similar COX-2 inhibitors, zaleplon, betazole, and CDPPB.[17] The pyrazole ring is found within a variety of pesticides as fungicides, insecticides and herbicides,[16] including fenpyroximate, fipronil, tebufenpyrad and tolfenpyrad.[18] Pyrazole moieties are listed among the highly used ring systems for small molecule drugs by the US FDA[19]

3-(Difluoromethyl)-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid is used in the manufacture of six commercial fungicides which are inhibitors of succinate dehydrogenase.[20][21]

Pyrazole is an inhibitor of the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme, and, as such, is used as an adjuvant with ethanol, to induce alcohol dependency in experimental laboratory mice.[22]
