Chemical Properties
BROWN GRANULAR CRYSTALLINE POWDER
Uses
2-Cyanoacetohydrazide is used in the study of the viral inhibiting activity of some potential antiviral agents.
Preparation
Cyanoacetic acid hydrazide was obtained by careful addition of hydrazine hydrate to ethyl cyanoacetate in ethanol with stirring at 0°C.[1]
Reactions
Cyanoacetic acid hydrazide is a versatile and convenient intermediate for the synthesis of wide variety of heterocyclic compounds. The β-functional nitrile1-4 moiety of the molecule is a favorable unit for addition followed by cyclization or via cycloaddition with numerous reagents providing heterocyclic compounds of different ring sizes with one or several heteroatoms that are interesting as pharmaceuticals, as herbicides, as antibacterial agents, and as dyes. Their reactions with dinucleophiles usually result in the formation of polycyclic ring systems which may be the skeleton of important heterocylic compounds. In previous publications, novel synthesis of azoles, azines, and azoloazines, had been reported utilizing β-functional nitriles as starting components. Among the β-functional nitriles, cyanoacetic acid hydrazide and their analogues are especially important starting materials or intermediates for the synthesis of various nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds. Our research deals with the effective use of cyanoacetic acid hydrazide in the synthesis of a variety of polyfunctional heterocyclic compounds with biological interest.
Chemical Reactivity
Cyanoacetic acid hydrazide can act as an ambident nucleophile, that is, as both an N- and a C nucleophile. On treatment of cyanoacetic acid hydrazide with various reagents, the attack can take place at five possible sites: the nucleophile is able to attack the carbon of the carbonyl function (position 3) and the carbon atom of the nitrile function (position 5). While the active methylene group (position 4) and amino groups (positions 1 and 2) are able to attack electrophiles.
Purification Methods
Crystallise the hydrazide from EtOH. The hydrochloride has m 178-180o and the benzylidene derivative has m 178o. It is converted to 3-oxo-5-iminopyrazolidine in hot 40% aqueous NaOH. [Beilstein 2 H 591, 2 I 256, 2 III 1636.] IRRITANT.
