Abstract

Aims: In this article, we have developed an eco-friendly one-pot multi-component reaction methodology employed for the green synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives viz cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and phenyl hydrazine and/or hydrazine hydrate in the presence of cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) at 90°C temperature in an aqueous medium.

Materials and Methods: In the present protocol, we developed a green method for the synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives through one-pot, multi-component cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, phenyl hydrazine or hydrazine hydrate and ethyl acetoacetate using cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) as a catalyst in water as a solvent. Our methodology confers advantages such as short reaction time, atom economy, purification of the product without using column chromatographic and hazardous solvent. The reaction is being catalyzed by cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) and thus, products are formed under the green reaction conditions.

Results and Discussion: Initially, the reaction of benzaldehyde and phenylhydrazine with ethyl acetoacetate was carried out in water at room temperature in the absence of the catalyst; no product was obtained after 24 h. When the reaction was carried out using L-proline as a catalyst in ethanol at 70°C, the yield of the product was 20%.

Conclusion: This research not only provides a green and efficient method for the synthesis of sulfinic esters but also shows new applications of electrochemistry in organic synthesis. We consider that this green and efficient synthetic protocol used to prepare sulfinic esters will have good applications in the future. In conclusion, we have developed successfully a green and efficient one-pot multi-component methodology for the synthesis of substituted pyrazoles using CTAB as a catalyst in water as a solvent with excellent yields. Purifications of compounds were achieved without the use of traditional chromatographic procedures. This methodology has advantages of operational simplicity, clean reaction profiles and relatively broad scope, which make it more attractive for the diversity oriented synthesis of these heterocyclic libraries. In this methodology, we suggest a further alternative possibility for the formation of substituted pyrazoles. The compound 7h can be used as an anticancer drug in the pharma industry.

Keywords: Green synthesis, heterocycles, antibacterial screening, one-pot, multi-component synthesis, pyrazoles, cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB).
