Abstract
A safe and efficient method for the in-situ preparation of (diazomethyl)dimethylphosphine oxide - a hereto unexplored diazoalkane reagent - is developed. The method is based on the diazotization of the corresponding P(O)Me2-substituted amine (readily available in multigram quantities) in non-aqueous media. The protocol provides the target product as ca. 1.5 M CHCl3 solution which is stable at -18 °C. The utility of the synthesized diazoalkane is illustrated by its [3+2] cycloaddition with electron-poor alkynes and alkenes providing the corresponding P(O)Me2-substituted pyrazoles and pyrazolines with moderate to good efficiency. In this view, the title compound represents and an important extension of medicinally relevant phosphine oxide reagents.

Abstract
The novel N-naphthylcyanoacrylamide thioglycosides 4 were readily prepared by the reaction of N-napthylcyanoacetamide 1 with aryl isothiocyanates in the presence of potassium hydroxide, followed by coupling of the produced salts 2 with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-gluco- and galacto-pyranosyl bromides 3. The N-naphthyl acrylamide thioglycoside 12 was prepared by the reaction of N-napthylcyanoacetamide 1 with glucose isothiocyante 10 in the presence of potassium hydroxide, followed by alkylation of the produced salt 11 with methyl iodide. The reaction of thioglycoside compounds 4 with hydrazines afforded the corresponding naphthyl-pyrazole hybrids.

Abstract
Design and synthesis of three novel series of aryl enaminones (3a-f and 5a-c) and pyrazole (4a-c) linked compounds with sulphonamides, sulfaguanidine, or carboxylic acid functionalities were reported as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) using the "tail approach" strategy in their design to achieve the most variable amino acids in the middle/outer rims of the hCAs active site. The synthesised compounds were assessed in vitro for their inhibitory activity against the following human (h) isoforms, hCA I, II, IX, and XII using stopped-flow CO2 hydrase assay. Enaminone sulphonamide derivatives (3a-c) potently inhibited the target tumour-associated isoforms hCA IX and hCA XII (KIs 26.2-63.7 nM) and hence compounds 3a and 3c were further screened for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cell lines under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. Derivative 3c showed comparable potency against both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cell lines under both normoxic ((IC50 = 4.918 and 12.27 µM, respectively) and hypoxic (IC50 = 1.689 and 5.898 µM, respectively) conditions compared to the reference drug doxorubicin under normoxic (IC50 = 3.386 and 4.269 µM, respectively) and hypoxic conditions (IC50 = 1.368 and 2.62 µM, respectively). Cell cycle analysis and Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide double staining methods were performed to reinforce the assumption that 3c may act as a cytotoxic agent through the induction of apoptosis in MCF-7 cancer cells.

Abstract
In this paper, an efficient synthetic route from pyrazole-chalcones to novel 6-aryl-5-hydroxy-2-phenylpyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-ones as 3-hydroxyflavone analogues is described. The methylation of 5-hydroxy-2,6-phenylpyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-one with methyl iodide in the presence of a base yielded a compound containing a 5-methoxy group, while the analogous reaction of 5-hydroxy-2-phenyl-6-(pyridin-4-yl)pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-one led to the zwitterionic 6-(N-methylpyridinium)pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol derivative. The treatment of 5-hydroxy-2,6-phenylpyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(2H)-one with triflic anhydride afforded a 5-trifloylsubstituted compound, which was further used in carbon-carbon bond forming Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions to yield 5-(hetero)aryl- and 5-carbo-functionalized pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles. The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction of 5-hydroxypyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles from the 5-hydroxy moiety to the carbonyl group in polar protic, polar aprotic, and nonpolar solvents was observed, resulting in well-resolved two-band fluorescence. The structures of the novel heterocyclic compounds were confirmed by 1H-, 13C-, 15N-, and 19F-NMR spectroscopy, HRMS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data.

Abstract
With the increase in the demand for high-performance composite explosives, the search for advanced energetic melt-castable compounds has attracted increasing attention in the field of energetic materials. Herein, two new energetic materials with nitromethyl and azidomethyl substituents (1-(nitromethyl)-3,4-dinitro-1H-pyrazole (NMDNP) and 1-(azidomethyl)-3,4-dinitro-1H-pyrazole (AMDNP) were prepared by the substituent modification of a potential melt-castable molecule ((3,4-dinitro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) methyl nitrate, MC-4), respectively. NMDNP exhibited a suitable melting point (90 °C), good thermal stability (Td : 185 °C) and excellent detonation performance (8484 m s-1 ) and impact sensitivity (25 J), thereby demonstrating promise as an energetic melt-castable material. Simultaneously, compared with the nitrato-methyl and azidomethyl substituents, the nitromethyl substituent exhibited greater advantages in regulating performance.

Abstract
With the significant growth of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), novel classes of compounds targeting monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) are promptly emerging as distinguished structures for the treatment of the latter. As a promising function of computer-aided drug design (CADD), structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) is being heavily applied in processes of drug discovery and development. The utilization of molecular docking, as a helping tool for SBVS, is providing essential data about the poses and the occurring interactions between ligands and target molecules. The current work presents a brief discussion of the role of MAOs in the treatment of NDs, insight into the advantages and drawbacks of docking simulations and docking software, and a look into the active sites of MAO-A and MAO-B and their main characteristics. Thereafter, we report new chemical classes of MAO-B inhibitors and the essential fragments required for stable interactions focusing mainly on papers published in the last five years. The reviewed cases are separated into several chemically distinct groups. Moreover, a modest table for rapid revision of the revised works including the structures of the reported inhibitors together with the utilized docking software and the PDB codes of the crystal targets applied in each study is provided. Our work could be beneficial for further investigations in the search for novel, effective, and selective MAO-B inhibitors.

Abstract
Direct functionalization of alkynes under oxidative conditions is challenging, as alkynes are usually recalcitrant towards typical oxidants. Herein, we communicate a strategy for the divergent functionalization of alkynes with photoexcited acridinium organic dyes, presumably via the formation of vinyl cation radicals as key intermediates. Based on the nature of the nucleophiles, different types of difunctionalized products were obtained in moderate to good yields. Addition of lithium Lewis acids resulted in a surprising reversal of diastereocontrol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whilst there are several methods to control weeds, which continuously plague farmers around the globe, the application of small molecular compounds is still the most effective technology to date. Plants can evolve to become resistant to PPO-inhibitors, a class of herbicides in commercial use since the 1960s. It is therefore essential to continuously develop new herbicides based on this mode-of-action with enhanced intrinsic activity, an improved resistance profile and favourable physicochemical properties. Based on an Amaranthus PPO crystal structure and subsequent modelling studies, halogen-substituted pyrazoles have been investigated as isosteres of uracil-based PPO-inhibitors. RESULTS By combining structural features from the commercial PPO-inhibitors tiafenacil and pyraflufen-ethyl and by investigating receptor-binding properties, we identified new promising pyrazole-based lead structures showing strong activity in vitro and in vivo against economically important weeds of the Amaranthus genus: A. retroflexus, and resistant A. palmeri and A. tuberculatus. CONCLUSION The present work covers a series of novel PPO-inhibiting compounds that contain a pyrazole ring and a substituted thioacetic acid sidechain attached to the core phenyl group. These compounds show good receptor fit in line with excellent herbicidal activity against weeds that plague corn and rice crops with low application rates. This, in combination with promising selectivity in corn, have the potential to mitigate and affect weeds that have become resistant to some of the current market standards. Remarkably, some of the novel PPO-inhibitors outlined herein show efficacies against economically important weeds that were superior to recently commercialized and structurally related tiafenacil. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Regio- and stereoselective switchable synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-N-carbonylvinylated pyrazoles is first developed by using the Michael addition reaction of pyrazoles and conjugated carbonyl alkynes. Ag2CO3 plays a key role in the switchable synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-N-carbonylvinylated pyrazoles. Ag2CO3-free reactions lead to thermodynamically stable (E)-N-carbonylvinylated pyrazoles in excellent yields whereas reactions with Ag2CO3 give (Z)-N-carbonylvinylated pyrazoles in good yields. It is noteworthy that (E)- or (Z)-N1-carbonylvinylated pyrazoles are obtained with high regioselectivity when asymmetrically substituted pyrazoles react with conjugated carbonyl alkynes. The method can also extend to the gram scale. A plausible mechanism is proposed on the basis of the detailed studies, wherein Ag+ acts as coordination guidance.

Abstract
Two series of piperazine-linked bis(chromene) hybrids that are attached to pyrazole units were synthesized in the current study. Both series are attached to an acyl unit at pyrazole-C3, with one series attached to an acetyl unit and the other to an ethoxycarbonyl unit. A [3+2] cycloaddition protocol was conducted to produce the target hybrids with good yields by reacting the appropriate hydrazonoyl chlorides with chromene-based bis(enaminone) in dioxane containing triethylamine at reflux for 4 h. New hybrids were tested for acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity at concentrations of 15 and 25 μM, as well as their ability to quench 2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicals at a concentration of 25 μg/mL. In general, the inhibitory activity is related to the electronic properties of the para-substituent that is attached to the arene unit at pyrazole-N1. Furthermore, the acyl unit attached to pyrazole-C3 has a significant effect on the new hybrids' inhibitory activity. At the previous concentrations, the (3-acetylpyrazole)-linked hybrid attached to p-NO2 units demonstrated the best acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity, with inhibition percentages of 79.7 and 90.2. Furthermore, the previous hybrid demonstrated the most effective DPPH inhibitory activity, with an inhibition percentage of 87.5.

Abstract
In the present work, a combination of experimental and density functional theory (DFT) investigation of the (3+2) cycloaddition reactions of diazopropane with chalcone derivatives was reported. All calculations were performed using several DFT approaches (B3LYP, M06, M06-2X) and 6-311+G(d, p) basis set. Based on the NMR, MS analyses and IRC calculations, the pyrazole derivatives are the kinetic adducts over the oxadiazoles. The use of two equivalents of diazopropane leads to thermodynamical products. A molecular docking analysis was performed to investigate the efficiency of the obtained products against selected drug targets in anti-Alzheimer ligand-receptor interactions. We revealed that the ligands selected were bound mainly to the catalytic (CAS) and peripheral (PAS) anionic sites of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) inhibitors, respectively. The selected ligands 1, 3, 4 and P14 may act as the best inhibitors against Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Abstract
An efficient transition-metal-free multicomponent approach to the regioselective synthesis of highly substituted N-alkylpyrazoles through 1,6-addition of pyrazole (in situ generated from α,β-unsaturated aldehyde and hydrazide) to para-Quinone Methides has been developed. The N-alkylpyrazole containing triarylmethanes having several heteroaryl rings (quinoline, pyridine, thiophene) at the central methine carbon atom was developed. This chemical process may be used for large-scale synthesis and provides a novel way to produce triarylmethanes with diverse functional groups.

Abstract
Pyrazole core represents a privilege scaffold in medicinal chemistry; a number of pyrazole compounds are endowed with various pharmacological activities in different therapeutic areas including antimalarial treatment. Supported by this evidence, a series of 5-anilino-3-(hetero)arylpyrazoles were evaluated for their antiplasmodial activity in in vitro assays. The compounds were synthesized according to regioselective and versatile protocols that combine active methylene reagents, aryl isothiocyanates and (substituted)hydrazines. The considered derivatives 2 allowed the definition of consistent structure-activity relationships and compounds 2b,e,k,l were identified as the most interesting derivatives of the series showing micromolar IC50 values against chloroquine-sensitive and chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium strains. Additionally, the most active anilino-pyrazoles did not show any cytotoxicity against tumor and normal cells and were predicted to have favorable drug-like and pharmacokinetic properties.

Abstract
An efficient, eco-compatible, and very cheap method for the construction of fully substituted pyrazoles (Pzs) via eliminative nitrilimine-alkene 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (ENAC) reaction was developed in excellent yield and high regioselectivity. Enaminones and nitrilimines generated in situ were selected as dipolarophiles and dipoles, respectively. A deep screening of the employed base, solvent, and temperature was carried out to optimize reaction conditions. Recycling tests of ionic liquid were performed, furnishing efficient performance until six cycles. Finally, a plausible mechanism of cycloaddition was proposed. Then, the effect of three different structures of Pzs was evaluated on the F1FO-ATPase activity and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening. The Pz derivatives' titration curves of 6a, 6h, and 6o on the F1FO-ATPase showed a reduced activity of 86%, 35%, and 31%, respectively. Enzyme inhibition analysis depicted an uncompetitive mechanism with the typical formation of the tertiary complex enzyme-substrate-inhibitor (ESI). The dissociation constant of the ESI complex (Ki') in the presence of the 6a had a lower order of magnitude than other Pzs. The pyrazole core might set the specific mechanism of inhibition with the F1FO-ATPase, whereas specific functional groups of Pzs might modulate the binding affinity. The mPTP opening decreased in Pz-treated mitochondria and the Pzs' inhibitory effect on the mPTP was concentration-dependent with 6a and 6o. Indeed, the mPTP was more efficiently blocked with 0.1 mM 6a than with 1 mM 6a. On the contrary, 1 mM 6o had stronger desensitization of mPTP formation than 0.1 mM 6o. The F1FO-ATPase is a target of Pzs blocking mPTP formation.

Abstract
Advances in molecular probes have recently intensified because they are valuable tools in studying species of interest for human health, the environment, and industry. Among these species, cyanide (CN-) and fluoride (F-) stand out as hazardous and toxic ions in trace amounts. Thus, there is a significant interest in probes design for their detection with diverse diazoles (pyrazole and imidazole) used for this purpose. These diazole derivatives are known as functional molecules because of their known synthetic versatility and applicability, as they exhibit essential photophysical properties with helpful recognition centers. This review provides an overview of the recent progress (2017-2021) in diazole-based sensors for CN- and F- detection, using the azolic ring as a signaling or recognition unit. The discussion focuses on the mechanism of the action described for recognizing the anion, the structure of the probes with the best synthetic simplicity, detection limits (LODs), application, and selectivity. In this context, the analysis involves probes for cyanide sensing first, then probes for fluoride sensing, and ultimately, dual probes that allow both species recognition.

Abstract
A new series of pyrazolo-benzimidazole hybrid Mannich bases were synthesized, characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, UV-Vis, MS, and elemental analysis. In vitro cytotoxicity of the new compounds studied on fibroblast cells showed that the newly synthesized pyrazolo-benzimidazole hybrid derivatives were noncytotoxic until the concentration of 1 μM and two compounds presented a high degree of biocompatibility. The antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of the newly synthesized compounds was assayed on Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC29212, and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853, Escherichia coli ATCC25922 strains. All synthesized compounds 5a–g are more active against all three tested bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC29212, and Escherichia coli ATCC25922 than reference drugs (Metronidazole, Nitrofurantoin), with the exception of compounds 5d and 5g, which are less active compared to Nitrofurantoin, and all synthesized compounds 5a–g are more active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853 compared to reference drugs (Metronidazole, Nitrofurantoin). Compound 5f showed the best activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, with a MIC of 150 μg/mL and has also inhibited the biofilm formed by all the bacterial strains, having an MBIC of 310 µg/mL compared to the reference drugs (Metronidazole, Nitrofurantoin).

Abstract
We describe the synthesis of so far synthetically not accessible 3,6-substituted-4,6-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazines as nitrogen-rich heterocycles. The target compounds were obtained in five steps, including an amidation and a cyclative cleavage reaction as key reaction steps. The introduction of two side chains allowed a variation of the pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazine core with commercially available building blocks, enabling the extension of the protocol to gain other derivatives straightforwardly. Attempts to synthesize 3,7-substituted-4,7-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazines, the regioisomers of the successfully gained 3,6-substituted 4,6-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazines, were not successful under similar conditions due to the higher stability of the triazene functionality in the regioisomeric precursors and thus, the failure of the removal of the protective group.

Abstract
Two new 1-(thia-zol-2-yl)-4,5-di-hydropyrazoles have been synthesized from simple precursors, and characterized both spectroscopically and structurally. In addition, two inter-mediates in the reaction pathway have been isolated and characterized, one of them structurally. The mol-ecules of the inter-mediate (E)-1-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-3-[4-(prop-2-yn-yloxy)phen-yl]prop-2-en-1-one, C19H16O3 (I), are linked by a combination of C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds to form ribbons. The products (RS)-5-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1-(4-phenythiazol-2-yl)-3-[4-(prop-2-yn--yloxy)phen-yl]-4,5-di-hydro-1H-pyrazole, C28H23N3O2S (II), and (RS)-5-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1-[4-(4-methyl-phen-yl)thia-zol-2-yl]-3-[4-(prop-2-yn-yloxy)phen-yl]-4,5-di-hydro-1H-pyrazole, C29H25N3O2S (III), are closely related - differing only by presence or absence of a methyl group at the aryl-thia-zolyl substituent - and crystallize in an isomorphous setting. Both mol-ecules contain an effectively planar di-hydro-pyrazole ring, and possess an overall T-shaped structure, which is a characteristic of triaryl-substituted 4,5-di-hydro-1-(thia-zol-2-yl)pyrazole compounds. The crystal packing is characterized by inter-molecular C-H⋯S and C-H⋯π (ar-yl/alkyne) inter-actions. A combination of two C-H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the product mol-ecules into sheets.

Abstract
Diazophosphonates, readily prepared from α-ketophosphonates by oxidation of the corresponding hydrazones in batch or in flow, are useful partners in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions to alkynes to give N-H pyrazoles, including the first intramolecular examples of such a process. The phosphoryl group imbues a number of desirable properties into the diazo 1,3-dipole. The electron-withdrawing nature of the phosphoryl stabilizes the diazo compound making it easier to handle, whilst the ability of the phosphoryl group to migrate readily in a [1,5]-sigmatropic rearrangement enables its transfer from C to N to aromatize the initial cycloadduct, and hence its facile removal from the final pyrazole product. Overall, the diazophosphonate acts as a surrogate for the much less stable diazoalkane in cycloadditions, with the phosphoryl group playing a vital, but traceless, role. The cycloaddition proceeds more readily with alkynes bearing electron-withdrawing groups, and is regiospecific with asymmetrical alkynes. The potential of diazophosphonates for use in bioorthogonal cycloadditions is demonstrated by their facile addition to strained alkynes.

Abstract
(1) Background: different previously synthesized pyrazoles and imidazo-pyrazoles showed interesting anti-angiogenic action, being able to interfere with ERK1/2, AKT and p38MAPK phosphorylation in different manners and with different potency; (2) Methods: here, a new small compound library, endowed with the same differently decorated chemical scaffolds, has been synthetized to obtain new agents able to inhibit different pathways involved in inflammation, cancer and human platelet aggregation. (3) Results: most of the new synthesized derivatives resulted able to block ROS production, platelet aggregation and p38MAPK phosphorylation both in platelets and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial cells (HUVEC). This paves the way for the development of new agents with anti-angiogenic activity.

Abstract
Introduction: Bipyrazole is constituted from two pyrazole units either in their fully aromatic or partially hydrogenated forms. Pyrazoles are widely available in pharmaceutical and agrochemical products. Some pyrazoles are essential parts of commercial drugs in the market. This inspired us to collect the pharmacological activities of bipyrazoles that have potential therapeutic behaviors in several biological aspects but none of them were included in commercial drugs.Areas covered: This review covers all biological and pharmacological potentials of bipyrazole derivatives during 2010-2021. The topics of this review comprised anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antitubercular, antimalarial, insecticidal activities as well as enzymatic inhibitions.Expert opinion: Bipyrazoles demonstrated a wide array of potent activities against various diseases such as anticancer, antitubercular, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities. Those are of great benefits for medicinal researchers to develop promising building blocks of bipyrazoles for treatment of diseases. The SAR studies showed that metallated bipyrazoles had better biological activities than bipyrazole ligands. For example, gold(III) and iridium(II) complexes of bipyrazoles were proved to be anticancer agents, and copper(I) as well as silver(I) complexes had excellent antibacterial activities. Several bipyrazoles were reported as antimalarial inhibitors better than chloroquine, the possible COVID-19 drug.

Abstract
Series of methyl 3- and 5-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates were developed and regioselectively synthesized as novel heterocyclic amino acids in their N-Boc protected ester form for achiral and chiral building blocks. In the first stage of the synthesis, piperidine-4-carboxylic and (R)- and (S)-piperidine-3-carboxylic acids were converted to the corresponding β-keto esters, which were then treated with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal. The subsequent reaction of β-enamine diketones with various N-mono-substituted hydrazines afforded the target 5-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates as major products, and tautomeric NH-pyrazoles prepared from hydrazine hydrate were further N-alkylated with alkyl halides to give 3-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates. The structures of the novel heterocyclic compounds were confirmed by 1H-, 13C-, and 15N-NMR spectroscopy and HRMS investigation.

Abstract
Azobenzenes are classical molecular photoswitches that have been widely used. In recent endeavors of molecular design, replacing one or both phenyl rings with heteroaromatic rings has emerged as a strategy to expand molecular diversity and access improved photoswitching properties. Many mono-heteroaryl azo molecules with unique structures and/or properties have been developed, but the potential of bis-heteroaryl architectures is far from fully exploited. We report a family of azobispyrazoles, which combine (near-)quantitative bidirectional photoconversion and widely tunable Z-isomer thermal half-lives from hours to years. The two five-membered rings remarkably weaken the intramolecular steric hindrance, providing new possibilities for engineering the geometric and electronic structure of azo photoswitches. Azobispyrazoles generally exhibit twisted Z-isomers that facilitate complete Z→E photoisomerization, and their thermal stability can be broadly adjusted regardless of the twisted shape, overcoming the conflict between photoconversion (favored by the twisted shape) and Z-isomer stability (favored by the orthogonal shape) encountered by mono-heteroaryl azo switches.

Abstract
Recently, the development of nanocatalysts based on naturally occurring polysaccharides has received a lot of attention. Chitosan (CS), as a biodegradable and biocompatible polysaccharide, is considered to be an excellent template for the design of a hybrid biopolymer-based metal oxide nanocomposite. In this case, lanthanum oxide nanoparticles doped with chitosan at different weight percentages (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt% CS/La2O3) were prepared via a simple solution casting method. The prepared CS/La2O3 nanocomposite solutions were cast in a Petri dish in order to produce the developed catalyst, which was shaped as a thin film. The structural features of the hybrid nanocomposite film were studied by FTIR, SEM, and XRD analytical tools. FTIR spectra confirmed the presence of the major characteristic peaks of chitosan, which were modified by interaction with La2O3 nanoparticles. Additionally, SEM graphs showed dramatic morphological changes on the surface of chitosan, which is attributed to surface adsorption with La2O3 molecules. The prepared CS/La2O3 nanocomposite film (15% by weight) was investigated as an effective, recyclable, and heterogeneous base catalyst in the synthesis of pyridines and pyrazoles. The nanocomposite used was sufficiently stable and was collected and reused more than three times without loss of catalytic activity.

Abstract
The five-membered heterocyclic group of pyrazoles/pyrazolines plays important role in drug discovery. Pyrazoles and pyrazolines present a wide range of biological activities. The synthesis of the pyrazolines and pyrazole derivatives was accomplished via the condensation of the appropriate substituted aldehydes and acetophenones, suitable chalcones and hydrazine hydrate in absolute ethanol in the presence of drops of glacial acetic acid. The compounds are obtained in good yields 68-99% and their structure was confirmed using IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and elemental analysis. The novel derivatives were studied in vitro for their antioxidant, anti-lipid peroxidation (AAPH) activities and inhibitory activity of lipoxygenase. Both classes strongly inhibit lipid peroxidation. Compound 2g was the most potent lipoxygenase inhibitor (IC50 = 80 µM). The inhibition of the carrageenin-induced paw edema (CPE) and nociception was also determined, with compounds 2d and 2e being the most potent. Compound 2e inhibited nociception higher than 2d. Pyrazoline 2d was found to be active in a preliminary test, for the investigation of anti-adjuvant-induced disease (AID) activity. Pyrazoline derivatives were found to be more potent than pyrazoles. Docking studies of the most potent LOX inhibitor 2g highlight hydrophobic interactions with VAL126, PHE143, VAL520 and LYS526 and a halogen bond between the chlorine atom and ARG182.

Abstract
Three novel lanthanide complexes with the ligand 4,4-difluoro-1-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)butane-1,3-dione (HL), namely [LnL3(H2O)2], Ln = Eu, Gd and Tb, were synthesized, and, according to single-crystal X-ray diffraction, are isostructural. The photoluminescent properties of these compounds, as well as of three series of mixed metal complexes [EuxTb1-xL3(H2O)2] (EuxTb1-xL3), [EuxGd1-xL3(H2O)2] (EuxGd1-xL3), and [GdxTb1-xL3(H2O)2] (GdxTb1-xL3), were studied. The EuxTb1-xL3 complexes exhibit the simultaneous emission of both Eu3+ and Tb3+ ions, and the luminescence color rapidly changes from green to red upon introducing even a small fraction of Eu3+. A detailed analysis of the luminescence decay made it possible to determine the observed radiative lifetimes of Tb3+ and Eu3+ and estimate the rate of excitation energy transfer between these ions. For this task, a simple approximation function was proposed. The values of the energy transfer rates determined independently from the luminescence decays of terbium(III) and europium(III) ions show a good correlation.

Abstract
Homoleptic ceric pyrazolates (pz) Ce(RR’pz)4 (R = R’ = tBu; R = R’ = Ph; R = tBu, R’ = Me) were synthesized by the protonolysis reaction of Ce[N(SiHMe2)2]4 with the corresponding pyrazole derivative. The resulting complexes were investigated in their reactivity toward CO2, revealing a significant influence of the bulkiness of the substituents on the pyrazolato ligands. The efficiency of the CO2 insertion was found to increase in the order of tBu2pz < Ph2pz < tBuMepz < Me2pz. For comparison, the pyrrole-based ate complexes [Ce2(pyr)6(µ-pyr)2(thf)2][Li(thf)4]2 (pyr = pyrrolato) and [Ce(cbz)4(thf)2][Li(thf)4] (cbz = carbazolato) were obtained via protonolysis of the cerous ate complex Ce[N(SiHMe2)2]4Li(thf) with pyrrole and carbazole, respectively. Treatment of the pyrrolate/carbazolate complexes with CO2 seemed promising, but any reversibility could not be observed.

Abstract
Aim: We report the synthesis and biological evaluation of a small library of 15 functionalized 3-styryl-2-pyrazolines and pyrazoles, derived from curcuminoids, as trypanosomicidal agents. Methods & results: The compounds were prepared via a cyclization reaction between the corresponding curcuminoids and the appropriate hydrazines. All of the derivatives synthesized were investigated for their trypanosomicidal activities. Compounds 4a and 4e showed significant activity against epimastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi, with IC50 values of 5.0 and 4.2 μM, respectively, accompanied by no toxicity to noncancerous mammalian cells. Compound 6b was found to effectively inhibit T. cruzi triosephosphate isomerase. Conclusion: The up to 16-fold higher potency of these derivatives compared with their curcuminoid precursors makes them a promising new family of T. cruzi inhibitors.

Abstract
Reported herein is the pyrazole-directed iridium-catalyzed enantioselective borylation of unbiased methylene C-H bonds at the position β to a nitrogen center. The combination of a chiral bidentate boryl ligand, iridium precursor, and pyrazole directing group was responsible for the high regio- and enantioselectivity observed. The method tolerated a vast array of functional groups to afford the corresponding C(sp3 )-H functionalization products with good to excellent enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Selective alkylation of pyrazoles could solve a challenge in chemistry and streamline synthesis of important molecules. Here we report catalyst‐controlled pyrazole alkylation by a cyclic two‐enzyme cascade. In this enzymatic system, a promiscuous enzyme uses haloalkanes as precursors to generate non‐natural analogs of the common cosubstrate S‐adenosyl‐l‐methionine. A second engineered enzyme transfers the alkyl group in highly selective C−N bond formations to the pyrazole substrate. The cosubstrate is recycled and only used in catalytic amounts. Key is a computational enzyme‐library design tool that converted a promiscuous methyltransferase into a small enzyme family of pyrazole‐alkylating enzymes in one round of mutagenesis and screening. With this enzymatic system, pyrazole alkylation (methylation, ethylation, propylation) was achieved with unprecedented regioselectivity (>99 %), regiodivergence, and in a first example on preparative scale.

Abstract
Co-crystallization from methanol of 3-amino-1H-pyrazole with 3,5-di-nitro-benzoic acid produces 3-amino-1H-pyrazol-2-ium 3,5-di-nitro-benzoate monohydrate, C3H6N3 +·C7H3N2O6 -·H2O, (I), while similar co-crystallization of this pyrazole with an equimolar qu-antity of fumaric acid produces bis-(3-amino-1H-pyrazol-2-ium) fumarate-fumaric acid (1/1), 2C3H6N3 +·C4H2O4 2-·C4H4O4, (II). The reaction of 3-amino-1H-pyrazole with a dilute solution of nitric acid in methanol yields a second, ortho-rhom-bic polymorph of 3-amino-1H-pyrazol-2-ium nitrate, C3H6N3 +·NO3 -, (III). In each of (I)-(III), the bond distances in the cation provide evidence for extensive delocalization of the positive charge. In each of (I) and (II), an extensive series of O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds links the components into complex sheets, while in the structure of (III), the ions are linked by multiple N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional arrangement. Comparisons are made with the structures of some related compounds.

Abstract
The pyrazole nucleus and its reduced forms, pyrazolines and pyrazolidine, are privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry due to their remarkable biological activities. A huge number of pyrazole derivatives have been studied and reported over time. This review article gives an overview of pyrazole derivatives that contain a styryl (2-arylvinyl) group linked in different positions of the pyrazole backbone. Although there are studies on the synthesis of styrylpyrazoles dating back to the 1970s and even earlier, this type of compound has rarely been studied. This timely review intends to summarize the properties, biological activity, methods of synthesis and transformation of styrylpyrazoles; thus, highlighting the interest and huge potential for application of this kind of compound.

Abstract
Two new substituted propane-dioate esters have been synthesized using a three-component solvent-free thermal reaction between diethyl propane-dioate (diethyl malonate), 5-chloro-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde and an aryl azide, forming two new C-C bonds in a single step. The products diethyl (RS)-2-[(4-bromo-phen-yl)(5-methyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-di-hydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)meth-yl]propane-dioate, C24H25BrN2O5 (I), and diethyl (RS)-2-[(4-chloro-phen-yl)(5-methyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-di-hydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)meth-yl]propane-dioate, C24H25ClN2O5 (II), are isomorphous, with Z' = 2 in space group P21/n. The two independent mol-ecules in compound (I) are both fully ordered, while each of the independent mol-ecules in compound (II) is disordered, but in different ways. In one mol-ecule of (II), the N-phenyl ring is disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies 0.635 (10) and 0.365 (10), and in the other mol-ecule the ester function is disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies 0.690 (5) and 0.310 (5). In both structures, the two independent mol-ecules adopt different conformations and, in each structure, the mol-ecules are linked into complex sheets by a combination of N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds. Comparisons are made with some related structures.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective α-fluorination reactions of carbonyl compounds are among the most powerful and efficient synthetic methods for constructing optically active α-fluorinated carbonyl compounds. Nevertheless, α-fluorination of α-nonbranched carboxylic acid derivatives is still a big challenge because of relatively high pKa values of their α-hydrogen atoms and difficulty of subsequent synthetic transformation without epimerization. Herein we show that chiral copper(II) complexes of 3-(2-naphthyl)-l-alanine-derived amides are highly effective catalysts for the enantio- and site-selective α-fluorination of N-(α-arylacetyl) and N-(α-alkylacetyl) 3,5-dimethylpyrazoles. The substrate scope of the transformation is very broad (25 examples including a quaternary α-fluorinated α-amino acid derivative). α-Fluorinated products were converted into the corresponding esters, secondary amides, tertiary amides, ketones, and alcohols with almost no epimerization in high yield.

Abstract
A novel series of organic tellurium compounds based on pyrazole derivatives with a general formula of ArTeBr3 and Ar2TeBr2 [Ar = 2-(3-(4-substituted phenyl) -5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-3,5-dinitrophenyl] were obtained by the refluxing of corresponding aryl mercuric chlorides with TeBr4 in two different mole ratio of 1:1 and 2:1, respectively, in free-moisture dioxane solvent under an argon atmosphere. Compounds of ArTeBr3 and Ar2TeBr2 were reduced by the action of ethanolic solution of hydrazine hydrate obtained Ar2Te2 and Ar2Te, respectively. Reaction of Ar2Te2 with excess thionyl chloride or iodine gave the corresponding trihalides ArTeCl3 and ArTeI3, respectively while the reaction of Ar2Te with thionyl chloride or iodine gave the corresponding Ar2TeCl3 and Ar2TeI3, respectively. The structures were elucidated according to their elemental analysis of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen (CHN) and some of the spectroscopic techniques such as infrared IR and nuclear magnetic resonance for 1H and 13C. The antimicrobial activity for all the synthetic compounds were assayed against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by using the agar diffusion method. The tellurated pyrazole derivatives showed a good degree against bacteria growth. In some cases, the antimicrobial activities of the synthetic compounds were better than amoxicillin.

Abstract
Pyrazoles represent a significant class of heterocyclic compounds that exhibit pharmacological properties. The present study aimed to investigate the antioxidant potential of pyrazol derivative compounds in brain of mice in vitro and the effect of pyrazol derivative compounds in the oxidative damage and toxicity parameters in mouse brain and plasma of mice. The compounds tested were 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-4-(phenylselanyl)-1H-pyrazol (1a), 3,5-dimethyl-4-(phenylselanyl)-1H-pyrazole (2a), 4-((4-methoxyphenyl)selanyl)-3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (3a), 4-((4-chlorophenyl)selanyl)-3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (4a), 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-4-(phenylthio)-1H-pyrazole (1b), 3,5-dimethyl-4-(phenylthio)-1H-pyrazole (2b), 4-((4-methoxyphenyl)thio)-3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (3b), 4-((4-chlorophenyl)thio)-3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (4b), and 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (1c). In vitro, 4-(arylcalcogenyl)-1H-pyrazoles, at low molecular range, reduced lipid peroxidation and reactive species in mouse brain homogenates. The compounds also presented ferric-reducing ability as well nitric oxide-scavenging activity. Especially compounds 1a, 1b, and 1c presented efficiency to 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl-scavenging activity. Compounds 1b and 1c presented 2,20 -azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)-scavenging activity. In vivo assays demonstrated that compounds 1a, 1b, and 1c (300 mg/kg, intragastric, a single administration) did not cause alteration in the of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase activity, an enzyme that exhibits high sensibility to prooxidants situations, in the brain, liver, and kidney of mice. Compound 1c reduced per se the lipid peroxidation in liver and brain of mice. Toxicological assays demonstrate that compounds 1a, 1b, and 1c did not present toxicity in the aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, urea, and creatinine levels in the plasma. In conclusion, the results demonstrated the antioxidant action of pyrazol derivative compounds in in vitro assays. Furthermore, the results showed low toxicity of compounds in in vivo assays.

Abstract
AIMS In this article, we have developed an eco-friendly one-pot multi-component reaction methodology employed for the green synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives viz cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and phenyl hydrazine and/or hydrazine hydrate in the presence of cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) at 90°C temperature in an aqueous medium. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the present protocol, we developed a green method for the synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives through one-pot, multi-component cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, phenyl hydrazine or hydrazine hydrate and ethyl acetoacetate using cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) as a catalyst in water as a solvent. Our methodology confers advantages such as short reaction time, atom economy, purification of the product without using column chromatographic and hazardous solvent. The reaction is being catalyzed by cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) and thus, products are formed under the green reaction conditions. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Initially, the reaction of benzaldehyde and phenylhydrazine with ethyl acetoacetate was carried out in water at room temperature in the absence of the catalyst; no product was obtained after 24 h (Table 1 entry 1). When the reaction was carried out using L-proline as a catalyst in ethanol at 70°C, the yield of the product was 20%. CONCLUSION This research not only provides a green and efficient method for the synthesis of sulfinic esters but also shows new applications of electrochemistry in organic synthesis. We consider that this green and efficient synthetic protocol used to prepare sulfinic esters will have good applications in the future. In conclusion, we have developed successfully a green and efficient one-pot multi-component methodology for the synthesis of substituted pyrazoles using CTAB as a catalyst in water as a solvent with excellent yields. Purifications of compounds were achieved without the use of traditional chromatographic procedures. This methodology has advantages of operational simplicity, clean reaction profiles and relatively broad scope, which make it more attractive for the diversity oriented synthesis of these heterocyclic libraries. In this methodology, we suggest a further alternative possibility for the formation of substituted pyrazoles. The compound 7h can be used as an anticancer drug in the pharma industry.

Abstract
The publications covering new, transition metal-free cross-coupling reactions of pyrroles with electrophilic haloacetylenes in solid medium of metal oxides and salts to regioselectively afford 2-ethynylpyrroles are discussed. The reactions proceed at room temperature without catalyst and base under solvent-free conditions. These ethynylation reactions seem to be particularly important, since the common Sonogashira coupling does not allow ethynylpyrroles with strong electron-withdrawing substituents at the acetylenic fragments to be synthesized. The results on the behavior of furans, thiophenes, and pyrazoles under the conditions of these reactions are also provided. The reactivity and structural peculiarities of nucleophilic addition to the activated acetylene moiety of the novel C-ethynylpyrroles are considered.

Abstract
The easy preparation and functionalization of pyrazoles associated with their innumerable biological properties have made this class of N-heterocycles very attractive for the development of new synthetic routes and applications. The cyclization reactions of alkynes and nitrogen compounds represent a powerful tool for the preparation of pyrazoles. This Review covers the recent advances in the preparation of pyrazoles by reacting alkynes and nitrogen compounds under transition-metal-catalyzed or metal-free conditions.

Abstract
The need for increasingly personalized medicine solutions (precision medicine) and quality medical treatments, has led to a growing demand and research for image-guided therapeutic solutions. Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful imaging technique that can be established using complementary imaging systems and selective imaging agents—chemical probes or radiotracers—which are drugs labeled with a radionuclide, also called radiopharmaceuticals. PET has two complementary purposes: selective imaging for diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression and response to treatment. The development of selective imaging agents is a growing research area, with a high number of diverse drugs, labeled with different radionuclides, being reported nowadays. This review article is focused on the use of pyrazoles as suitable scaffolds for the development of 18F-labeled radiotracers for PET imaging. A brief introduction to PET and pyrazoles, as key scaffolds in medicinal chemistry, is presented, followed by a description of the most important [18F]pyrazole-derived radiotracers (PET tracers) that have been developed in the last 20 years for selective PET imaging, grouped according to their specific targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Topiroxostat is an excellent xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor, possessing a specific 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazole framework. OBJECTIVE The present work was aimed to investigate the preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) of 2-cyanopyridine-4-yl-like fragments of topiroxostat analogues. METHODS A series of 5-benzyl-3-pyridyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives (1a-j and 2a-j) were designed and synthesized by replacement of the 2-cyanopyridine-4-yl moiety with substituted benzyl groups. XO inhibitory activity in vitro was evaluated. Furthermore, molecular modeling simulations were performed to predict the possible interactions between the synthesized compounds and XO binding pocket. RESULTS The SARs analysis demonstrated that 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazole framework is not essential; in spite of its lower potency, 5-benzyl-3-pyridyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole is an acceptable scaffold for XO inhibitory activity to some extent. A 3'-nitro and a 4'-sec-butoxy group link to the benzyl moiety will be welcome. Furthermore, the most promising compound, 1h, was identified with an IC50 value of 0.16 μM, and the basis of XO inhibition by 1h was rationalized through the aid of molecular modelling studies. CONCLUSION Compound 1h could be a lead compound for further investigation and the present work may provide some insight into the search for more structurally diverse XO inhibitors with topiroxostat as a prototype.

Abstract
During 2019, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 48 new drugs (38 New Chemical Entities and 10 Biologics). Although this figure is slightly lower than that registered in 2018 (59 divided between 42 New Chemical Entities and 17 Biologics), a year that broke a record with respect to new drugs approved by this agency, it builds on the trend initiated in 2017, when 46 drugs were approved. Of note, three antibody drug conjugates, three peptides, and two oligonucleotides were approved in 2019. This report analyzes the 48 new drugs of the class of 2019 from a strictly chemical perspective. The classification, which was carried out on the basis of chemical structure, includes the following: Biologics (antibody drug conjugates, antibodies, and proteins); TIDES (peptide and oligonucleotides); drug combinations; natural products; and small molecules.

Abstract
Pyrazoles are known as versatile scaffolds in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry, often used as starting materials for the preparation of more complex heterocyclic systems with relevance in the pharmaceutical field. Pyrazoles are also interesting compounds from a structural viewpoint, mainly because they exhibit tautomerism. This phenomenon may influence their reactivity, with possible impact on the synthetic strategies where pyrazoles take part, as well as on the biological activities of targets bearing a pyrazole moiety, since a change in structure translates into changes in properties. Investigations of the structure of pyrazoles that unravel the tautomeric and conformational preferences are therefore of upmost relevance. 3(5)-Aminopyrazoles are largely explored as precursors in the synthesis of condensed heterocyclic systems, namely pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. However, the information available in the literature concerning the structure and chemistry of 3(5)-aminopyrazoles is scarce and disperse. We provide a revision of data on the present subject, based on investigations using theoretical and experimental methods, together with the applications of the compounds in synthesis. It is expected that the combined information will contribute to a deeper understanding of structure/reactivity relationships in this class of heterocycles, with a positive impact in the design of synthetic methods, where they take part.

Abstract
Sydnone-based cycloaddition reactions are a versatile platform for pyrazole synthesis, however they operate under harsh conditions (high temperature and long reaction times). Herein we report a strategy that addresses this limitation utilizing the synergistic combination of organocatalysis and visible-light photocatalysis. This new approach proceeds under ambient conditions and with excellent levels of regiocontrol. Mechanistic studies suggest that photoactivation of sydnones, rather than enamines, is key to the successful implementation of this process.
