The versatile, hitherto unreported 4-acetyl-5-methyl-1-phenyl-3-phenylcarbamoyl-1H-pyrazole (3) was prepared via the reaction of 2-(2-phenylhydrazono)-2-chloro-N-phenylacetamide with pentan-2,4-dione in the presence of sodium ethoxide. Reaction of 3 with dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal (DMF-DMA) furnished the corresponding 4-[(E)-3-(dimethylamino)aci-yloyl]-5-methyl-1-phenyl-3-phenylcarbamoyl-1H-pyrazole (5). The latter product underwent regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with some nitrilimines to afford the non-isolable dihydropyrazole intermediates which then lose dimethylamine yielding the corresponding pyrazole derivatives. The preliminary screening for the antitumor activity of all newly synthesized compounds was carried out against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma tumor cells. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
