Abstract

A one-pot, two-step, three-component method for the conversion of commercially available aldehydes to phosphonylpyrazoles has been developed, demonstrating, for the first time, the dual reactivity of the Bestmann–Ohira reagent (BOR) in a single-pot transformation. This method, extended to the synthesis of sulfonylpyrazoles by employing BOR in the first step and a diazomethyl sulfone in the second step, is complementary, with regard to ...
