EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF 4-ETHOXYCARBONYL PYRAZOLIN-5-ONE DERIVATIVES

ABSTRACT Concise and efficient methods for the preparation of 3-substituted 4-ethoxycarbonylpyrazolin-5-ones are described. The synthetic strategies involve carbon-acylation in the presence of base, followed by ring cyclization with hydrazine or hydrazine monohydrochloride.
