THE CONSTITUTIONHOF THE PYRAZOIE GROUP The pyrazole compounds may be classed under the name 'Azoles which includes a five ”membered cyclic system containing nitrogen. In the pyrazole group we have those ccsspounds in 101101! tin molecule contains a ring composed of two nitrogens and three carbons arranged in the following manner (Ann. 279, 188; 293, 1; see, 62) . 1N ages so 04 Pyrazole may be regarded as derived from pyrrcl by replace- ment of a methine group adjacent to an NH group by nitrogen. The Pyrazole stands in the same relation to pyrrcl as pyridine does to bensem (Ann. 238, 138). RE -.I: ‘ HO OH HO OH H OH N OH or _ I . or HG CH HG—CH HO CH 30— CH pyrrcl pyrazole The structure or the pyrazole ring has been proven by many men of whom Knorr is the most outstanding. The above rcmulae show that pyrrcl is closely related to pyrazole, and for this reason the nomenclature is that suggested by Knorr for the pyrrcl derivatives. There is a dihydro pyrazole or pyrazoline am a tetra hydrOpyrazole or pyrazolidine corresponding to the di and tetra hydmpyrrols . 11%! NE NH an ‘ one I 011.

Numbering starts with t1: nitrogen in the imino group and proceeds to the second nitrogen atom as illustrated in the above formula. In the investigation or pyrazole compounds, Knorr came to the conclusion that the pyrazole molecule was symmetrical and that the usual pyrazole formulae were in contradiction with his results (Ann. 379, 188).

In 1893 the problem or the structure or pyrazole mtered a new phase when Knorr and MacDonald discovered that 1 phmyl 3 methyl pyrazole and l phenyl 5 methyl pyrazoh or their amino derivatives gave one and the same methyl pyrazole of boiling point 204°C. (Ann. 1894, 279, 188). Therefore, it is not possible to obtain the two methyl pyrazoles of the formulae. N 003s HO OH Claisen and Roosen obtained two isomeric phasyl methyl pyrazoles on condensing phenyl hydrazine with oxymethylsne acetone. On the other hand Knorr and MacDonald failed to ob- serve two isomeric phenyl methyl pyrazoles on condensing hydra- zine hydrate with oxymethylene acetone. (Bar. 1891, 24, 1888; Ann. 1894, 278, 261, 267).

OH This conclusion was confirmed by the discovery that methyl pyrazole could react either as a three methyl pyrazole or a five methyl pyrazole.

R OH + - ' III \6 n H OH BO 3 Acetylene Diazo methane Pyrazols ll. Buchner obtained pyrazole by heating 3 : 4 : 5 pyrazole triearboxylic acid (Ann. 273, 253). I. According to Knorr, the best means for the preparation of pyrazole, is the prolonged heating of 3 : 5 pyrazole di- carboxylic acid. Knorr states that ldiketones, compounds of the formula 3' cc-cn 12" co - a" to form pyrazole derivatives (Ann. 253, 139). react wit h pr imary aromat ic hyd raz in s In general, compounds containing two C0 groups or a CO andCOOH group in the 8 position to one another or two double linked carbon atoms adjacent to a 00011 or CO group react with hydrazine to give pyrazole derivatives (shhmidt, Organic Chemistry, P 56‘}. Knorr has given a number of facts which illustrates the aromatic character of pyrazole (Ber. 1895, 28, 714-716, Schmidt, Organic Chemistry, P 567). ' l. Fuming sulphuric acid converts pyrazole into s sulphonic acid (M.P. 330-335°C) which has reactiom similar to aromtic sulphuric acids. ' - 2. In halogens derivatives, the halcgen is more firmly held to pyrazole nucleus than in benzene derivatives. 3. Pyrazcle is nitrated with concentrated nitric acid, 4 nitro pyrazole being formed. The nitro compound may be reduced to amino compounds. 4. Amino pyrazoles resemble the aromatic bases in its behavior. It gives a color reaction with a solution of bleaching powder. 5. Diazonium salts of pyrazole can be coupled with phat ole to form azo dyes. These differ from aromatic azo dyes in the stability of their salts. 0n boiling these solutions there is no visible evolution of nitrogen; this occurs only on prolonged heating at higher temperatures. Diazonium salts of pyrazole, however, do not undergo the usual "diazo reaction“. 6. 5-hydroxy pyrazole or pyrazolone have a phenolic character. 7. Towards oxidizing and reducing agents, pyrazole shows the same remarkable stability as benzene. 8. Homologues of pyrazole resemble those of benzem in being readily oxidized to the correspondirg carboxylic soils. Pyrazon is a weak‘secondary base and it may be acetyhted, benzolated and converted into derivatives of urethane and tree (Ber. 1895, 28, 716). 11 Constitution of Pyrazolone The pyrazolones or hate dehydrcpyrazclss are those pyrazole derivatives which have been known for the longest time. These compounds were discovered and investigated by Knorr. The pyra- zolone compounds are divided into two classes: - 4 derivatives or true ketones derived from ketonie acids and 3 and 5 derivat- ives as derived from cyclic acid amides. f NH HI CE I am C I O 0.0 on H C 0’0 H C 033 3 pyrazolone 4 pyrazolone 5 pyrazolone (Ann. 238, 145). 10 Pyrazolone bears the same relation to pyrazoline as pyridine does to pyridone: my "3;: 2162: 39:: Pyrazolone Pyrazo line Pyridone Pyr id. ine I HG Knorr has determined the constitution of tie phenyl methyl pyrazolone by the following reactions (Ann. 238, 148). . 1. By distillation with zinc dust, a product is obtained which is a weak base of composition clonlowz which in all its properties and reactions resembles a pyrazole base. Its salts are decomposed by water. Through the reduction with sodium ad alcohol it is transformed into a base rich in hydroga, which exhibits a reaction similar to a pyrazoline base in that it gives an intense violet color upon the addition of an oxidizabls sub- stance. These properties are identical with thus of l-phsnyl- 3-methyl pyrazole of the formula:- NCsHe H CH CHsC CH Through its formation, the origin of 1-phemyl methyl pyrazolone from the pyrazole group is pror ed. 2. The methylene of aceto acetic ester is found unchanged. It undergoes a number of reactions characteristic of this group. 3. The oxyg-i in phenyl methyl pyrazolone is entiriy inactive in that it cannot be combined as an hydroxyl ar ketonic ll oxygen but only in the form of acid amides. 4. Phenyl methyl pyrazolone contains no more hydrogen which could combine with nitrogen. It is indeed methylated with methyl iodide attaching undoubtedly to the nitrogen atom, giving the methylated base, antipyrine, in which tie molecule of phenyl methyl pyrazolone undergoes a radical change. The antipyrine no longer contains the methylene group but a methine group. This phenomena led Knorr to a false conception of the antipyrine molecule. 8 From the foregoing it is evident that the. had rogcns in phenyl methyl pyrazolom distribute themselves as fella s: five hydrogens are in the phenyl of the phenyl hydrazim, three hydrogens on the methyl group and two hydrogens on tie methylene of acetc acetic ester. The post ble formulas for phenyl methyl pyrazolom may be either of the following: CeHs CeHs w c-o 1! con. CHsC - C31: 080 03s The decision of the tvo: formula lies with the question of the constitution of the phenyl hydrazine of acetc acetic ester and the ketone and aldehyde derivatives of phenyl hydrazine for which compounds there are two formula.

According to 3. Fischer, the ketones and aldehyde derivatives of primary as well as the unsymmetrical ssmrdary aromatic hydrazine under suitable conditions react very similar to the formation of indol derivatives (Ann. 236, 116). - '033 —->c - CsHeH 1" t 0 one, CHs + We ‘CH.

From this fact, it appears with great probability, that the formula for the phenyl hydrazons of acetc acetic est- er is that of formula I: CsHsNH - N I: 0.03. “CHaCOQCefli From the above facts, Knorr cast aside the carbizim structure for the pyrazolone and accepted the following formula for'phenyl methyl pyrazolone: NCsHe w -c “ cmc- CH. Knorr states that l-phenyl-S-methyl-5-pyrazolone may exist in three desmotropic forms. This is described by Knorr as "double tautomerism" (Bar. 1895, 28, 706).

III The Pyrazcle Blue Test Knorr and Duden found that the oxidation of phenyl methyl pyrazolone with ferric chloride or platinum chloride resulted in the formation of pyrazole blue which.reprssents the indigo of the pyrazole series. In a chloroform.solution, a deep blue color results and in other solution violet needles of pyrazofe blue are precipitated (heyer and Jacobson,‘vo1. II, 415; Ann. see, 155; Ber. 25, 765).

To 125 gms. of phenyl hydrazine, 100 gms. of acetc acetic ester were added and warmed cn.a water bath. The first reaction consisted of the elimination of water with the formation of phenyl hydrazons of acetc acetic ester.

Knorr prepared ortho and.para tolyl methyl pyrazolone through the condensation of[toly1 hydrazine with acetc acetic ester. The melting point of the para compound was 137°C and that of the ortho compound 183°C. (Ber. 1884,17, 550). Hushn and Brigham,obtained in the preparation of O-tolyl methyl pyrazolone (m.p. 183°C) an isomeric tolyl methyl pyrazolone 17 having a melting point of 169°C (Brigham's Thesis 1929). 5.

The meta xylyl methyl pyrazolone was obtaired as needles melting at 159°C (Monstsherte 12, 215). Huston and Brigham prepared P-xylyl methyl pyrazolone though the condensation of P-xylyl hydrazine with acetc acetic ester. The P-xylyl methyl pyrazolone was crystallized from alcohol and melted at 150-151°C (Brigham's Thesis).

The mixture was refluxed until no generation or hydrogen chloride was evolved. The thick viscous solution was dissolved in a 10% solution of hydrochloric acid. The pyrazolone dissolved in the acid solution. The solution was filtered, cooled and neutralized with ammonia hydroxide. The pyrazolone was precipitated and the product dried on a porous plate . (If the pyrazolone is dark colored it my be decolorized by boiling in an alkaline solution or animal char- coal). The yield was eight grams, due to the fact that di- acetyl phenyl hydrazine was famed. The pyrazolone crystallizes from alcohol as colorless crystals.

Antipyrine has without doubt a metm‘l group attached to the second~nitrogen atom. This has been proven by the synthesis of antipyrine from symmetrical methyl phenyl hydrazine and the splitting off of this base from nitroso antipyrine. by the action of alkali. The fact that aniline and methyl aniline are split off from antipyrine-with zinc dust as well as the reaction of metallic sodium in a boiling alcoholic solution affords proof of the above structure. 22 2. Antipyrine, no longer, contains the methylene group as in phenyl methyl pyrazolone, but has a methine group in place. Nitrous and nitric acid produce nitroso and nitro antipyrim‘ of basic character. Benzaldehyde condenses with two molecules of antipyrine according to the follaing equation: scnnlzngo + 0,360 ——- 0293231992 + 0.3.011 + 23.0 The reaction of bromine with antipyrim results in 0 addition product, onslanzosr. which loses hydrobromie acid wlmn treated with cold water and forms a mono-substituted product, ClonnlleBr. All those derivatives of phalyl methyl pyrazolone in which one hydrogul of the methylene group has been replaced permit the 1: operation of antipyrine. 5. Antipyrine as a derivative of phenyl methyl pyrazolore must retain the pyrazole nucleus. 4. The preparation of antipyrine through the con! ensation of symetrical methyl phenyl hydrazine with acetc acetic ester throws considerable light on the constitution of antipyrine in that antipyrine contains a methine group (Ann. 258, 2(5 ,206; Ber. 17, 2037) ’3 cm. - \ *' -0 6 GB. + CHsCOCBaC_OCRH‘——a CH. 00 + CaHsOH + H20 ' 03.0 on Methyl pharyl Aceto acetic ester Antipyrine hydrazine 5.

Michaelis has critized Knorr's formuh and has pro- posed the phenol betaine formula for antipyrine (Ann. 520, ‘5; 551, 197) -3-CHs Michaelis gives the following points for the establish- ment of the above formula (Ann. 520, ‘6). 1.

The behavior of antipyrine with alkyl iodides at. a moderate temperature is explained on the simplest basis by the assumption of 2 : 5 pyrazole formula. The antipyrine acts in the same manner with alkyl iodides as the inner salts of phenol ammonium bases (phenol betaines) in that iodim attaches to the second nitrogen atom and the alkyl group to the carbonyl.

The proof which Knorr has advanced is that phenol betaine of Greiss reactsdifferently than antipyrine. This does not contradict the 2 : 5 pyrazole formula, since both compounds are constituted differently as clos e observations show: 11 NC e35 n c/Ko/ 0H. N/\o\ c a cLéLN CH. Wm H The four membered ring of the 2 : 5 pyrazole forum! is only similar to phenol betaine since it contains no; two carbon atoms, but only one. However, the oxygm forms a five manbered ring as a result of which there must be a difference in the behavior from a single betaim ring. ”v 4. The formation of chloro methylates from phenyl methyl pyrazolone by the interaction of phosphorous oxy- chloride on antipyrine gives good support for. the 2 5 pyrazole formula. In this case,one must assume a com- plicated rearrangement of the isopyrazolone formula. (Ber. 32, 2400). 5. T1. 2-metho chloride of l-pheny1-5 methyl-5- chloro pyrazole formed by the action at phosph: rcus oxy- chloride on antipyrine, yields antipyrim when treated with caustic soda.

Selene pyrin trioxide will change into selanopyrin dichloride quite smoothly without rupture of the molecule when treated with concentrated hydrochloric acid. In 1896, Knorr made a detailed comp risen of antipyrine with O-trimethyl ammonium phenoxide, which revealed tin fact that, apart from the addition of alkyl iodide, these csmpourds were quite different in their behavior.

The pseudo methyl iodide of Greiss phenol betaine is stable when boiled with sodium twdroxide and when sub- Jeeted to dry distillation regenerates dimethyl amino anti- pyrine, whereas the pseudo methyl iodide of antipyrine aho regenerates antipyrine by distillation under tin influeme of sodium hydroxide. From the abate facts Knorr rejected the phenol betaim formula for antipyrine (Ann. 528, 78). Properties of antipyrine 1. Antipyrine decomposes by distillation at atmospheric pressure. 2. Antipyrine is very soluble in water, alcohol, chlorofom, hot toluene and difficultly soluble in cold toluene, ether and ligroin. It crystallizes from water in large crystals 29 having a melting point of 115°C. 5. Antipyrine is a strong acidic base, precipitated by alkali and forms salts with acids. Knorr also prepared antipyrine by the methylation of l-phenyl-B-methyl-5-ethoxy pyrazolone. The methylated pro- duct was treated with sulphurous acid and supersaturated with sodium hydroxide. The antipyrine was extracted with ether and recrystallized. (Ber. 28, 712). The ortho and para 5-t01yl antipyrine were prepared by Knorr by heating the corresponding 5-pyrazolone with methyl alcohol and methyl iodide at 100°C. The ortho compound melted at 96-9700 aid the para compound at 157°C (Ber.17,550). Klauber prepared 1, 5, (antipyrine by the heating of a compound having the empirical formula, 033%04, with methyl alcohol and methyl iodide at 150°C. The product was crystallised from ligroin. T he crystals came down from ligroin in needles, melting at 115°C (Monatshefte 12, 217), The T 5 a antipyrine was prepared by Michaelis by methy- lat ion of phenyl 5-methyl-5-pyrazolone with methyl alcohol and methyl iodide. The 5-antipyrine melted at 115°C. (Ann.558,284|. The ortho and para 5-tolyl antipyrine were also prepared by Michaelis by heating the corresponding 5-pyrazolones wifi methyl iodide and metm‘l alcohol in a closed tube. The methy- lated product was dissolved in water and the: antipyrim lib- erated by the treatment. with sodium hydroxide. The product was extracted with chloroform, dried with Cacos and recry- UV stallised from ligroin. The para tolyl antipyrine had a melting point of 98-10000 and the ortho tolyl antipyrim had a melting point of 97°C. (Ann. 558, 517). VII Preparation of the Benzoyl Esters Nef prepared the benzoyl ester of phenyl methyl pyra- zolone by Schotten Bauman reaction. The pyrazolone was shaken with an excess of benzoyl chloride in an alkali sel- ution. The product was recrystallized from alcohol and melted at 75°C.

(Benetton-Bauman react- ion). (Ann. see, 278). The 1-pheny1-54methyl-5-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone was recry- stallized frm alcohol and melted at 64-6590. Ortho and para tolyl 5-methyl-5-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone were prepared in the same manner. The correspondiig 5-pyrazolones were shaken with benzoyl chloride in. an alkaline solution and recrystallized from alcohol. The ortho compound melted at 72°C and the para compound melted at 47°C. (Ann. 558,515). 32 EXI—‘ER IME NTAL PART I Preparation of Tolyl Hydrazine and xylyl Hydrazine Huston.and Brigham found that the usual methods for the preparation of’hydrazine could not be used with very good re- sults in the preparation of O-tolyl and P-xylyl hydrazine, since there was much tar formed when sodium.nitrite and acid were used for diazotizingz They found that by using ethyl nitrite instead as the diazotizing agent that better results could be obtained. The method was similar to that used in preparation of cyml hydrazine by Demonbreun.and Kramer (Menatshefte 11, 285; 12, 211). The ethyl nitrite was prepared according to tie mettnd of Feldman (Jour. of the Am.Pharmaceutical.Assn. 12, 589). A.mixture of 250 gms. of sodium nitrite and 100 gms. of alcohol were placed in a flask fitted with a dropping funnel and a condenser. The receiver was packed in ice in order to condense the ethyl nitrite which has a boiling point of 17°C. .1 solution of 200 gms of concentrated sulphuric acii , 1500 cc. of water and 100 gms. of ethyl alcohol was slowly dropped into the nitrite mixture. The ethyl nitrite was produced immediately and condensed in.the ice cooled receiver. The yield was from. 89 - 92% of the theoretical. o-tolyl hydrazine was prepared by diazotizing O-toluidine with hydrochloric acid and ethyl nitrite ani reduction with stannous chloride. 1228 cc. of concentrated hydm chlorie act was added .to 100 gas. of O-toluidine in a large healer in a freezing2mixture. 80 gms. of ethyl nitrite in 80 cc. of alcohol were placed in a dropping funnel packed in ice. 55 The ethyl nitrite was added to the O-toluidine hydro- chloride solution as fast as possible without the temperature of the reaction mixture rising above -lO°C. The rapid addition of ethyl nitrite reduces the tendency for the fornmtion of tb amino azo compound. A mechanical stirrer was used to eliminate local over heating of the reaction mixture. A solution of 592 gms. of stannous chloride in 540 cc. of concentrated hydmchlcr ic acid was tlmn slowly added to the diazonium compound, keying the reaction mixture below -5°C. The hydrazine hydrochloride was obtained as light yellow crystals, which were filtered, dried, and decomposed.by caustic potash (500 gms. per 500 cm). This liberated the free base which was extracted with ether and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The ether was distilled (ff and hydrazine purified by fractional distillation, tie greater part of the hydrazine coming over between 110-125°C at 4 mm. pressure. The yield was 64 gms. which is 56% of the theoretical. O-tolyl hydrazine has a melting point of 61-620 and a boiling poizn range of 95-1150 under 5 mm. pressure.

To 64 gms. of O-tolyl hydrazine was added 68.6 gms. of acetc acetic ester. This was refluxed for two hours at 1000C, then for eight hours at 160-17006. A resinous nnss was ob- tained which solidified on cooling. This was treated with its own volume of acetone and allowed to crystallize in the ice box. A cake of yellow crystals forned which were recry- 36 stal-lized from alcohol and washed with ether. The yield was 26.5 gms. which is 50% of the theoretical based onihe hydrazine used. The product melted at 183°C an! was t1! same compound as that obtained by Knorr thrmgh the con- densation of O-tolyl hydrazine with.aceto acetic ester. An.attenpt was made to obtain the isomeric l-O-tolyl 3- methyl-s-pyrazolone of melting point 169°C along with the l-O-tolYl 5-methyl-5-pyrazolone of melting point 163°. The above two isomeric 5-pyrazolones were obtained by Huston and Brigham.(Brighamfls Thesis 1929) as a mixture through the condensation of O-tolyl hydrazine with acetc acetic ester. Nine condensations were made with the production of only cne-tolyl-S~methyl-5-pyrazclone of melting point 18390. The o-tolyl methyl pyrazolone cm.p. 183°C) is soluble in hot alcohol, chloroform and benzene, slightly soluble in ether and insoluble in water and petrolic ether.

Knorr assigned the methylene form to the pyrazo ions which responds to the pyrazole blue test (Ann. 838, 155; Ber. 25, 765) The 5-pyrazolcne melting at 183° responded to the pyrazole blue test, while the 5-pyrazolone meltixg at 169°C did not respond to this test and must therefore be of the imine structure. III Methylation of 1-0-Tolyl-B-Methyl-5~Pyrazclone The l-0-toly1-5-methyl-5-pyrazolone (m.p. 185°C) was methylated by the method used by Knorr (Ber. 17, 550). 10 gms. of the pyrazolone were heated in a seabed tube (carius tube) with 10 gms. of methyl iodide and 10 gms. ct ' methyl alcohol eight to ten hours at 120°C. The methyl ahaohol was distilled off under diminished pressure. The product was dissolved in.water and the tolyl antipyrine liberated by the addition of sodium hydroxide (37 gns. per 100 cc.) The cruie product was crystallized from a mixture of chloroform.amd high test gasoline. The tolyl antipyrine was then.recry- stallized several times from high test gasoline. The crystahs came down.as long needles which melted at 90-91°C. The yield was 6.4 gms. which is 31% of the theoretical.

The tolyl antipyrine was recrystallized several times from high test gasoline. The crystals came down in long needles melting at 90-9100. The methylation products of the two isom ric loo-tolyl- 6-methyl-5-pyrazolones have the same melting points (90-9100) which indicates that 1-e-tolyl-3-methy1-5-pyrazolone (m.p. 183°C) and 1-o-to1y1-5-methyl-5-pyrazolonc (m.p. 16900) are i somers . IV Preparation of p-xylyl-S-methyl-5-pyrazolcne l-p-xylyl-S-methyl-s-pyrazolone was prepared by the nethod used by Knorr in the preparation of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5- pyrazolone (Ber. 16, 2597; Ann. 238, 147). 2'7 grams (1 mol.) of p-xylyl hydrazine were added to 26 gms. (1 mol.) of aceto- acetic ester in a flask connected to a reflux condenser. The reaction mixture was heated on an oil bath for eight hours at 150-16000. When the contents of the fls sk cooled it solidified to a dark brown resinous mass. The resinous mass was treated with its own volume of acetone and allowed to crystallize. The crude prodmt was crystallized from a mixture of alcohol and high test gasoline. ‘(The product was first dissolved in the laast amount of alcohol and than gasoline was added. The mixt- ure was boiled until a homogenous solution was obtained. It was set aside and allowed to crystallize). The xylyl methyl pyrazolone was recrystallis ed several times from gasoline and separated as very fine needhs which melted at lGdOC. The yield was 9 gms. which is 22% of the theoretical. Huston and Brigham.obtained a xylyl methyl pyrazolone melting at 150-151°C by the above method (Brighamfls Thesis 1929). ‘ The pyrazole blue test was applied t1 the xylyl meUhyl pyrazolone (msp. lcqfii a positive test was obtained which indicated that the pyrazolone had a methylene structure. The test was also applied to the xylyl methyl pyrazolone (mwp. 150-151°C) and a negative test was obtained which indicated that the pyrazolone had the imine structure.

V Methylation of p-Xylyl Methyl Pyrazolone The l-p-xyly1-5~methyl-5-pyrazolone was methylated by the method used by Knorr in the preparation of tolyl antipyrine (Ber. 17, 550) Seven grams of 1-p-xyly1-5-methyl-5-pyrazolom (m.p. 164°C) were heated in a sealed tube with sevm grams of mthyl iodide and sevei grams of methyl alcohol eight burs at 130°C. The methyl alcohol was distilled off from the methylated product under diminished pressure. The product was dissolved in water and the xylyl antipyrine liberated by the addition of sodium hydroxide (67 gms. per 100 cm). The crude product was crystallized from a mixture of a]: ohol and high test gasoline. The xylyl antipyrine was then recry- stallixed several times from high test gasoline. The crystals came down as small plates with a silver luster which melted at 97.500. The yield was two grams which is 27% cf ts thereticel.

The acetyl xylyl hydrazide was prepered in the fillewing way: To 55.5 grams (1 mol.) of p-xylyl hydrazim was added 17.6 grams (1 mol.) of glacial acetic acid and refluxed for six hours. The contents of the fled: were then poured into water and the entire mass evaporated to dryness on a ste- bath. The brown crystalline residue was dried ‘onra pomus . plate, washed with a small amount of ether, and again dried on a porous plate. This was pure enough to be used in the preparation of the 3-pyrazolone. The yield was fourteen 44 grams which is 50% of the theoretical. Better results were obtained when the residue was recrystallized from water. The reactions may be shom by the following equations: NHNHg COCH. ' GB. + cmcoon e 4, on. 1.. C C p-xylyl hydrazine p-acetyl xylyl hydrazi de The l-p-xylyl-S-methy1-5-pyrazolone was prepared by placing fourteen grams (1 mol.) of acetyl xylyl hydrazide and ten grams (1 mol.) of aceto acetic ester in a flask fitted with a reflux condenser with a delivery tube immersed in water to collect the liberated hydrogen chloride gas. To this mixt- ture twenty-seven grams (2 1/2 mol.) phosphorous trichloride was gradually added through a reflux condenser. Then the flat was heated, gradually at first and then to a temperature which would cause.the reaction mixture to reflux, until no more hydrogen chloride was evolved. The prepared pyrazolone was dissolved in a 10% solution of hydrochloric acid. The solut- ion was cooled, filtered, and neutralized with amonium hydroxide, which caused the pyrazolone to be precipitated. The pyrazolone was filtered off and crystallized from a mixture of alcohol and high test gasoline. The crystals came down as small cream colored crystals melting at 178-17900. The yield was five grams which is 9.5% of the theoretical.

A mixture of 4 grams 1-p-xy1y1-5-methyl-5-pyrazolone, 10 grams of pyridine and 4 grams of benzoyl fichloride was shaken in a stoppered 50 cc. Erlenmeyer fled: and was allowed to set over night. The contents were poured into water and washed, first with a dilute solution of sulphuric acid and them with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate. The product was crystall- ized several times from ligroin in an ice chest. The cry- 46 stale came down as small cream colored rhomboids meltixg at 74°C.
