Abstract

As outlined in Schemes 1 and 2, the synthesis of the target ligand follows a convergent strategy with an overall yield of about 70%. Although the precursor compound 2 has already been described in the literature, 14 we decided to develop an alternative access, since it was only obtained along with its regioisomer 5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)(1-methyl)pyrazole. The separation of the two isomers requires column chromatography. A few years ago, we reported the synthesis of ...
