Abstract
Biheterocyclic compounds in recent years have gained a significant importance in medicinal chemistry. In this paper the synthesis of novel pyrazol-3ylthiazoles through Vilsmeier–Haack reaction using 2-amino thiazoles as precursors is described. Synthesis of twelve new derivatives was accomplished with moderate yield (70–76%). Structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral (1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, LC–MS) and elemental analyses.

1 Introduction
In the area of heterocyclic chemistry a recent trend has been the revival of interest in biheterocyclic systems. The current interest in these systems may be attributed to their presence as structural units in a variety of highly bioactive terrestrial and marine natural products. It has been recognized that a suitably structured ligand may bind by occupying two or more sites, multivalent, on the biomolecules. This concept has been a new trend in drug research and has been reviewed (Wright and Usher, 2001). Biheterocyclic compounds have also stimulated a keen interest among material chemists, who have been studying polythiophenes and polypyrroles as conducting polymers and oligoheterocycles as molecular wires as well as dyes (Park et al., 2001) with novel optical properties. Biheterocycles having luminescent properties have also been reported (Noack et al., 2002). Some of the biheterocyclic compounds are reported to have much better antibacterial activity when compared to that of monoanalogues (Zhang et al., 1991). Biheterocyclic compounds also can act as a powerful chelating agent, forming stable coordination polymers, complexes with various transition metals and trace elements (Joule et al., 1995; Rout et al., 1996; Thakur et al., 1997; Zhu et al., 2006). Thus need to develop efficient routes to synthesis biheterocycles is very significant.
The 2-aminothiazoles occur widely in structures of pharmaceutical interest together with many natural products (Katritzky et al., 2008) They are used as intermediates in the synthesis of antibacterial, antifungal (Bakr et al., 2012; Gaurav et al., 2006; Ranjana et al., 2011) anticancer (Mei-Jung Lai et al., 2011) and anti-inflammatory activities (Hans, 1977; Wilson et al., 2001; Sharma et al., 1998). Synthetic thiazoles have also been shown a wide variety of biological activity such as antitumour activity (Shao et al., 2006), analgesic (Basavaraja et al., 2008), antimicrobial (Mostafa and Abd El-Salam, 2013; Sharshira and Hamada, 2012), anticonvulsant (Azam et al., 2009), antihelminthic and insecticidal activity (Himaja et al., 2012) as well as applications in liquid crystals and cosmetic sunscreens (Karam et al., 2013). Pyrazoles are another potent moiety that exhibit wide range of pharmacological activities such as antitumour (Nassar, 2010), antimicrobial (Sharshira and Hamada, 2011), anti-inflammatory (Haufel and Breitmaier, 1974; Zhai Xin et al., 2006) and anti-hypertensive (Dmytro et al., 2009). So it is very important to synthesize new compounds having both 2-aminothiazole and pyrazole moieties. In this paper we are describing the synthesis of pyrazol-3ylthiazoles using 2-aminothiazoles as precursors. For the pyrazole ring construction among the various methods reported (Gupton et al., 2002; Panda and Jena, 2012; Yahia et al., 2011) we have adopted the Vilsmeier Haack reaction. In this method the hydrazone formed by the reaction of methyl ketone and hydrazine was treated with Vilsmeier Haack complex obtained by the reaction of DMF and phosphorous oxychloride. This method is more advantageous than other methods and the pyrazole ring construction has been achieved in a single step with good yields.
2 Materials and method
IR spectra were recorded in KBr on FT-IR (Research Spectrophotometer Series) and Perkin–Elmer FT-IR (Spectrum 1000). 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra recorded on a Bruker AMX (400 MHz) Spectrophotometer using DMSO-d6, CDCl3 and CD3OD as solvent. TMS is used as internal standard (chemical shifts in δ) and mass spectra were recorded on a LC–MS instrument. Compounds were checked for their purity by TLC on silica gel G plates and spots were located by UV, iodine vapor and DNP.

3 Results and discussion
The starting material, 2-aminothiazoles has been synthesized by reported methods. Among the various synthetic methods used for the construction of the 1,3-thiazole rings (Ruettinger, 1976; Ortega et al., 2000), the strategy involving benzamidine and phenylisothiocyanate as starting material (Murawewa, 1959) was adopted in the present investigation. The treatment of the benzamidine and phenylisothiocyanate with diisopropylethylamine in DMF yielded N-(phenylcarbamothioyl)benzene carboximidamide. This on treatment with chloroacetone and triethylamine in methanol yielded a mixture of [2-(N-benzyl-N-ethylamino)-4-methylthiazol-5-yl)(phenyl)methanone (major product) and 1-[2-(N-benzyl-N-ethylamino-4-phenylthiazol-5-yl)ethanone 1 (minor product), the isolation of the two products was difficult since both have same Rf value (TLC). The mixture was then treated with alkyl halides with potassium carbonate as base in methanol at reflux conditions to yield N-substituted-1-[4-phenyl-2-(phenylamino)-1,3-thiazol-5-yl]ethanone 2a–c. This was then treated with different hydrazines. The minor compound only reacted with hydrazine and converted to hydrazones 3a–l. Among these compounds, 3b, 3g, 3h, and 3l were highly unstable at room temperature and they were taken directly into the next step without further purification Scheme 1. All other compounds were column chromatographed and were confirmed by spectral studies. The hydrazone 3a treated with phosphorous oxychloride in DMF under Vilsmeier–Haack condition (Meth-Cohn and Stanforth, 1991) afforded a yellow compound 4a which was purified through column chromatography. The appearance of the band at 1680.8 cm−1 in the IR spectrum of the compound 4a indicated the presence of a carbonyl group. The NMR spectrum showed a singlet at around δ 8.3 ppm corresponding to the pyrazole ring which confirmed the cyclization and also disappearance of the methyl proton at around δ 1.9 ppm was observed. The formation of the compound was then confirmed by the mass spectral analysis. It exhibited a molecular ion peak at m/z 436 corresponding to its molecular weight. Thus the compound obtained has been confirmed as 3-{2-[methyl(phenyl)amino]-4-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl}-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4 carbaldehyde. Similarly all the other derivatives were synthesized, column chromatographed and characterized by spectroscopic studies. The yields of the compounds are found to be the same irrespective of the substituent at the R2 position (Table 1).
