A simple synthesis of 1Н-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

3-Acetyl-4,6-diaryl-2-methylaminopyridines were synthesized via rearrangement of quaternary 4,6-diaryl-3-cyano-2-methylpyridinium salts. Annulation of the pyrazole ring of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines was achieved by N-nitrosation of the methylamino group of the pyridine and reduction of N-nitroso group to the hydrazine group with simultaneous intramolecular closure of the pyrazole ring.
