It is well known that both isoxazole ring as well as pyrazole ring possess various biological activities and they both show interesting antimicrobial activity [1,2,3]. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to believe that a molecule bearing both moieties would possible show combined activity. Having this in mind we designed the synthesis of 3-(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1,2-benzisoxazole 2-oxide as shown below. Nitrogen derivatives of o-hydroxyaryl ketones have been proved valuable starting materials in organic synthesis[4]. Thus, we synthesised (2-hydroxyphenyl)(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methanone oxime and we subsequently oxidized it with diacetoxy iodobenzene (DIB). The reaction led to the formation of the oxidative cyclisation product, giving the desired 3-(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1,2-benzisoxazole 2-oxide, in 61% yield.

(2-Hydroxyphenyl)(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methanone oxime was prepared according to the literature methods by refluxing (2-hydroxyphenyl)(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methanone and hydrochloric hydroxylamine in ethanol in the presence of pyridine whereas commercially available diacetoxy iodobenzene were supplied by Aldrich.

Oxidation of (2-hydroxyphenyl)(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methanone oxime

0.58 g (1.79 mmol) of DIB are added to a suspension of 0.5 g (1.79 mmol) of (2-hydroxyphenyl)(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methanone oxime in 20 ml CH2Cl2 in an ice-bath. The mixture was then magnetically stirred for 3 hrs. Evaporation of the solvent gave an oil which was then subjected to column chromatography (silica gel 70-230 mesh). Elution with a mixture of petroleum ether / ethylacetate 3:1 afforded the desired 3-(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1,2-benzisoxazole 2-oxide as white crystals (0.30 g, 61 %). The product was identified by its 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS and elemental analysis.
