Introduction

In recent years the pollution free organic reaction and assisted by microwaves in particular have been gained special attention.1,2The use of solid supports as well as microwaves3has been well established as a pollution free technique, which is currently under much investigation by synthetic organic chemists.4As Microwave induced Organic Reaction Enhancement (MORE) chemistry5,6allows reaction to occur on a preparative scale in open vessels under solvent free conditions which avoids the risk of high pressures and explosions7、8microwave activation rather than conventional heating is preferred as solid supports are rather poor thermal conductors but strong microwave absorbents.9One reaction is that the use of microwave activation in organic synthesis can increase the purity of the resulting products, enhance the chemical yield and shorten the reaction time. The other reason is that solvent free reaction avoids organic solvents during the reaction in organic synthesis, lead to a clean, efficient and economical technology.10It has many advantages such as high efficiency and selectivity, easy separation and purification, mild reaction conditions and environmental acceptability,11further the reactions are generally faster and the products obtained are of high purity,12for increase the efficiency of microwave reaction number of inorganic solid supports like, alumina, silica gel, montmorillonite K10 clay, etc are used as catalyst and as energy transfer, medium that devoid the hazards of solution phase reactions. These solid sup portal microwave organic reaction13显示各种使用如更好的选择性,瑞玛rkable reaction rate enhancement, improved yield and associated ease of manipulation.14,16

Nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds17like pyrroles and pyrazoles have received considerable attention in recent years due to their biological activities like anti-inflammatory, anlagen, anticonvulsant and antidiabetic.18

Results and Discussion

In view of these observations, it was thought worthwhile to synthesize and investigate the compounds in which pyrazole have been linked with pyrrole moiety.

The reaction sequence leading to the formation of desired heterocyclic compounds are outlined in Scheme-I synthesis of 2-[(5
/-(4//-substituted phenyl)-1/-phenyl) pyrazolyl] pyrroles III (a-m) starting from 2-acetyl pyrrole I and 2- [substituted benz-1/(propene-1//-one)] Pyrroles II (a-m), in the presence of phenyl hydrazine, 2-[(5/-(4//-substituted phenyl)-1/-phenyl) pyrazolyl] pyrroles III (a-m).The compounds were characterized by means of IR,1H NMR and elemental analysis.

Synthesis of III from II

By Microwave Irradiation Method:

A) Solid Phase MWI

A solution ofII(0.01mol), Phenyl hydrazine in ethanol (2ml) was taken in a 100ml borosil flask and to this KOH (1g) and basic alumna (3g) was added. The reaction mixture was thoroughly mixed, dried in air and irradiated inside a microwave oven for 5-7 min. at power level(700W), the reaction mixture was cooled. and extracted with ethanol (3x10ml).The resultant solid was recrystallized using aqueous ethanol.

B) Solution Phase MWI

Equimolar quantities of II, Phenyl hydrazine (0.01mol) and KOH in ethanol (30ml) were taken in a 100 ml borosil flask fitted with afunnel as a loose top. The reaction mixture was irradiated in a microwave oven for 5-6 min. at 20% power level (300W) with short interruption of 20 sec, to avoid the excessive evaporation of the solvent. This protocol was repeated in overall heating time. On completion of the reaction (TLC) the reaction mixture was cooled and acidified with dil HCl. The product5separated was filtered, washed with cold water, dried and recrystallized from ethanol.

Synthesis of 2-[substituted benz-1/(propene-1//-one)] Pyrroles II (a-m)

2-acetyl pyrrole (0.01mol) and 2- [substituted benz-1/(propene-1//-one)] Pyrroles II (0.01mol) was dissolved in 100ml ethanol. To this solution, NaOH (40%, 10ml) was added drop wise with constant stirring at room temp. till a dark yellow mass was obtained. The reaction mixture was kept 7-8 hr and acidified with dil HCl. The solid obtained was washed with cold water. It was filtered, dried and crystallized from ethanol. These compounds (2a-m) are synthesized by classical as well as microwave assisted reaction (The paper is in press).

Synthesis of 2-[(5/-(substituted phenyl)-1/- phenyl) pyrazolyl] pyrroles III (a-m)

A mixture of benzylidene acetyl pyrroles II (0.01mol) and phenyl hydrazine (0.03mol) was refluxed in ethanol for 8 hr. The contents were evaporated to dryness and the product so obtained was washed with water repeatedly and then recrystallized from ethanol.
