Copper-catalyzed synthesis of 1,3,4-trisubstituted and 1,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyrazoles via [3+2] cycloadditions of hydrazones and nitroolefins

A highly economical and efficient copper(I)-catalyzed regioselective method for the synthesis of 1,3,4-trisubstituted and 1,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyrazoles via [3+2] cycloaddition of hydrazones and nitroolefins has been reported. This process displays excellent applicability with a wide range of substrates under mild conditions.
