Microwave-Assisted Preparation of 1-Aryl-1H-pyrazole-5-amines
Published on: June 23, 2019
(1-Phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl pyridine-3-carboxyl-ate
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(15)H(12)N(4)O(2), the dihedral angle between the planes of the nicotino-yloxy fragment and triazole ring is 88.61 (5)°. The dihedral angle between the planes of triazole and benzene rings is 16.54 (11)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯N, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π(triazole) hydrogen bonds and aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions between the benzene and triazole rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.895 (1) Å].

01:18Aromatic Hydrocarbon Cations: Structural Overview
Cycloheptatriene is a neutral monocyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon that consists of an odd number of carbon atoms and an intervening sp3 carbon in the ring. The three double bonds in the ring correspond to 6 π electrons, which is a Huckel number, and therefore satisfies the criteria of 4n + 2 π electrons. However, the intervening sp3 carbon disrupts the continuous overlap of p orbitals. As a result, cycloheptatriene is not aromatic.

01:25Basicity of Heterocyclic Aromatic Amines
Heterocyclic amines, where the N atom is a part of an alicyclic system, are similar in basicity to alkylamines. Interestingly, the heterocyclic amine having a nitrogen atom as part of an aromatic ring has much less basicity than its corresponding alicyclic counterpart. For this reason, as presented in Figure 1, piperidine (pKb = 2.8) is significantly more basic than pyridine (pKb = 8.8).
01:07Preparation of 1° Amines: Hofmann and Curtius Rearrangement Overview
In the presence of an aqueous base and a halogen, primary amides can lose the carbonyl (as carbon dioxide) and undergo rearrangement to form primary amines. This reaction, called the Hofmann rearrangement, can produce primary amines (aryl and alkyl) in high yields without contamination by secondary and tertiary amines.
