Abstract
This review aims to focus and highlight the regio-orientation and regioselectivity of the reactions of 3(5)-aminopyrazoleswith 1,3-bielectrophilic reagents that lead to the formation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. To clarify the significance ofregio-orientation, reactions of 3(5)-aminopyrazoles with symmetric 1,3-bielectrophilic reagents such as acetylacetoneand malononitrile are also included. The comparable nucleophilicity of the exocyclic NH2 group and endocyclicNH in 3(5)-aminopyrazoles is considered as it causes literature controversy associated with regio-orientation of thesubstituents on the pyrimidine ring of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine when unsymmetrical 1,3-bielectrophilic reagentreacts with 3(5)-aminopyrazole. To the best of our knowledge, this review would be the first collective and confinedreport to the regio-orientation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines.
