title: Design and synthesis of two pyrazole libraries based on o-hydroxyacetophenones.
abstract: Two new solid-phase syntheses of substituted pyrazoles are described. The first includes supporting an o-hydroxyacetophenone on Merrifield resin, Vilsmeier-Haack formylation on the methyl group and cyclization with a substituted hydrazine to afford a pyrazole ring with two diversity centers. The second starts from o-hydroxyacetophenone supported on Wang resin, which undergoes a Claisen condensation with a carboxylic acid ester to yield a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound that cyclizes to a pyrazole using a hydrazine. Both methods have been used to synthesize two small pyrazole libraries.
