Abstract
A concise strategy for the synthesis of substituted 4-acylpyrazole derivatives from N-propargylic sulfonylhydrazones and diaryliodonium salts has been developed. The pyrazole derivatives are formed through a five-step cascade sequence that includes intramolecular cyclization, hydroxylation, elimination, copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidation, and intramolecular rearrangement.

- 14 Pyrazoles 3a–m; General Procedure A 10 mL round-bottomed flask was charged with the appropriate N-propargylic sulfonylhydrazone 1 (0.5 mmol), diaryliodonium salt 2 (0.75 mmol), and Cu(OTf)2 (18.1 mg, 0.05 mmol). Undried DBE (5 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 80 °C in air until the reaction was complete (TLC). The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the crude residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluent: petroleum ether/EtOAc = 30/1).
