Md. Threadgill et al., THE REACTION OF 1,1,1,5,5,5-HEXAFLUOROPENTANE-2,4-DIONE WITH HYDRAZINES - A REINVESTIGATION, Journal of fluorine chemistry, 65(1-2), 1993, pp. 21-23
The reaction of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,4-dione with hydrazine
(N2H4) in boiling ethanol gives 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole but
reaction with N-aryl or N-aroyl hydrazines gives the 1-aryl- or s(trif
luoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-hydroxypyrazoles, as shown by NMR and mass
spectra, in contrast to a previous report.
