Notes stereochemistry of the heterocyclic derivatives at C-2 to be the same as the corresponding ketone, the hydrazines could have isomerized the methyl moiety during the condensation reaction. Use of semicarbazone or thiosemicarbazone resulted also in pyrazoles. All of the pyrazoles IIIa,c,d,f and VI exhibited uv maxima at 225-227 µ, which shifted to 231-235 µ in acidified alcohol. The phenylpyrazoles IIIb,e had a maximum at 253 µ, which was not affected by acidification. No attempt was made to ascertain the exact location of the phenyl ring.The pyrimidines IV were best prepared by melting an intimate mixture of the 1,3-diketones and guanidine carbonate or thiourea. Use of the standard baseor acid-catalyzed condensation conditions resulted only in the destruction or the recovery of diketone. The aminopyrimidines had double maxima of 230 and 303 µ, which could be shifted by acid to 226 and 312 µ, respectively. Thiourea product IVb had peaks at 233 and 286 µ.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
