An efficient method for the preparation of 3-substituted-7-alkoxy-5H- pyrazolo[4,3-d]-1,2,3-triazin-4(3H)-ones 7a-n is described. Isopropyl 1,4-dinitropyrazole-5-carboxylate (2) underwent aromatic nucleophilic "cine" substitution with concomitant ester hydrolysis to give 3(5)-alkoxy-4-nitropyrazole-5(3)-carboxylic acids 3a-c, when it was reacted with an alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide at room temperature. The latter were converted into the final compounds 7a-n through a four step sequence, involving: i) carboxylic acid activation, ii) carboxamide formation, iii) nitro group reduction, and iv) intramolecular diazotization.
