A Regioselective One-Pot, Three Component Synthesis of 6-Aryl-4-cyano-3(2H)-pyridazinones in Water
A series of 4-cyano-3(2H)-pyridazinones bearing different aryl substituents in the 6-position of the pyridazinone ring was synthesized regioselectively using a novel efficient one-pot three component reaction of alkyl 2-cyanoacetates with arylglyoxals in the presence of hydrazine hydrate at room temperature in water.
