PROCESS FOR PREPARING N-SUBSTITUTED 1H-PYRAZOLE-5-CARBOXYLATE COMPOUNDS AND DERIVATIVES THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for preparing an N-substituted 1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate compound of the formula (I-A) comprising the steps of i) deprotonating a compound of the formula (II) in which the variables R1, R2 and r are each as defined in the description and the claims, with a magnesium-organic base having a carbon bound magnesium; and ii) subjecting the product obtained in step (i) to a carbonylation by reacting it with a reagent selected from the group consisting carbon dioxide or a carbon dioxide equivalent, to obtain a compound of formula (I-A); and it relates to further conversions to yield a N-substituted 1H-pyrazole-5-carbonyl chloride compound of the formula (I)
