Abstract:
A new method for the synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-5,10-dione derivatives via lipase from the Aspergillus niger-catalyzed multicomponent reaction of aldehydes, malononitrile, and phthalhydrazide is reported herein for the first time. This novel method holds several advantages, including its efficiency, environmental friendliness, simple workup procedure, and good yield (70-86%). The effects of temperature, organic solvents, and water content were investigated. This protocol has the potential to replace traditional chemical synthesis routes for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds.

The reaction begins with the nucleophilic addition between a phosphorus ylide and the carbonyl compound. Due to its carbanionic character, phosphorus ylide acts as a strong nucleophile and attacks the electrophilic carbonyl group. This generates a charge-separated dipolar intermediate called betaine. The negatively charged oxygen atom and...
