Abstract

:
The title compound 2-[(3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene]¬indane-1,3-dione (3) was synthesized in high yield by reaction of 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl¬pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde and indane-1,3-dione in ethanol in the presence of pyridine. The structure of this new compound was confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and GC-MS spectral analysis.

Graphical Abstract

Naturally occurring as well as synthetic pyrazole-containing heterocyclic compounds have great importance for their biological activities such as anti-bacterial [1], anti-inflammatory [2], anti-hypertensive [3], anti-cancer [4], and anti-amoebic activity [5]. Pyrazole-containing donor-acceptor chromophores are also applicable in materials fields for their properties such as non-linear optical (NLO), optical limiting [6], electrochemical sensing [7] and langmuir film [8]. Due to the wide application of pyrazoles we decided to synthesize a new pyrazole-containing donor-acceptor chromophore by Knoevenagel condensation in analogy to a previously published procedure [9].

Experimental

Materials

3,5-Dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4-carbaldehyde and indane-1,3-dione were purchased from Aldrich Chemicals. Melting points of the synthesized compounds were determined in open-glass capillaries on a Stuart-SMP10 melting point apparatus and are uncorrected. IR absorption spectra were recorded in the 4,000–400 cm−1 range on a Shimadzu FTIR-8400s using KBr pellets, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker-AVANCE-III 600 spectrometer at 600 MHz and 150 MHz, respectively, chemical shifts are reported as parts per million (ppm) downfield from TMS (Me4Si) used as an internal standard.
A mixture of 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1) (1.0 g, 0.005 mol), indane-1,3-dione (2) (0.73 g, 0.005 mol) and a few drops of pyridine in ethanol (15 mL) was heated for 3 h. The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. The solid that separated from the cooled mixture was collected and recrystallized from a methanol-chloroform mixture to give the title compound (3) as a yellow solid.
