Thermodynamic vs. Kinetic Control in Synthesis of O-Donor 2,5-Substituted Furan and 3,5-Substituted Pyrazole from Heteropropargyl Precursor.

ABSTRACT: Elaboration of a convenient route towards donor-substituted pyrazoles from heteropropargyl precursors is challenging due to a number of thermodynamically favorable side reactions (e.g., acetylene-allene isomerization and Glaser homocoupling). In this work, Sonogashira cross-coupling conditions of 4-tert-butylphenyl propargyl ether with benzoyl chloride followed by tandem Michael addition/cyclocondensation with hydrazine into 3,5-disubstituted pyrazole (kinetic control), as well as cycloisomerization conditions of ketoacetylene intermediate into 2,5-disubstituted furan (thermodynamic control), were established through a variation of the catalyst loading, solvent polarity, excess of triethylamine, and time of reaction. During the optimization of process parameters, a number of by-prod
