Abstract

Oxidation of aldehyde 4-chloro-2, 3,5, 6-tetrafluorophenylhydrazones (1) with [bis(acetoxy)iodo] benzene leads to the formation of nitrile imines (2) which can react in situ with acrylonitrile to produce l-(4-chloro-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)-3-substituted-5-cyano-4, 5-dihydropyrazoles (3) in moderate to good yields. The structures of new compounds were fully confirmed by their spectral data and elemental analyses. A plausible reaction mechanism for the generation of nitrile imine is proposed.
