“…[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Due to their attractive pharmacological properties, pyrazolo [3,4-b]pyridines have attracted the attention of chemists who have researched ways to obtain the desired properties through different synthetic strategies. The most common reactions include: (a) condensation of pyrazole-5-amine derivatives and activated carbonyl groups; [15][16][17] (b) reaction of 5-aminopyrazoles, 1,3-dicarbonyl derivatives or equivalents and aldehydes through of Hantzsch-type reaction; [18][19][20] (c) through Povarov-type [4 + 2], cycloaddition between 5-aminopyrazoles, aromatic aldehydes, and cycloalkanones in acetic acid; 21 methylene ketones such as acetone or acetophenones with potassium hydroxide as basic catalyst. [22][23][24] The methods described in the literature presents several disadvantages such as the use of toxic solvents for the environment, long reaction times, several steps of synthesis, these contradict the current trends of green chemistry, 25 as a result of the importance that presents these heterocycles in the medicinal eld, different researchers have designed environmentally friendly and efficient synthetic routes, for example have used water as solvent under microwave irradiation (MWI) using catalysts organic or inorganic.…”
