Methyl 5-bromo-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate

Methyl 5-bromo-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate (CAS 1328893-17-9) is a strategically brominated pyrazole ester engineered for regioselective cross-coupling applications in medicinal chemistry and agrochemical development. This molecule integrates three orthogonal functional elements: a C5-bromo substituent serving as a privileged handle for Pd-catalyzed transformations (Suzuki, Buchwald-Hartwig, Sonogashira), a C3-methyl ester enabling hydrolysis to the free acid or amide coupling, and a 1H-pyrazole core that provides dual hydrogen-bond donor/acceptor capability for enhanced target binding. The electron-deficient bromine at C5—activated by the adjacent ring nitrogens—facilitates efficient nucleophilic displacement or metal-catalyzed functionalization, while the ester moiety offers modular access to diverse carboxylate derivatives. This intermediate is particularly valuable for constructing fused heterocyclic systems (pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines), kinase inhibitor cores targeting ATP-binding pockets, and agrochemical actives where the 5-bromopyrazole motif enables rapid SAR exploration. Manufactured with purity ≥98% under controlled conditions, it supports drug discovery programs requiring modular diversification of nitrogen-rich heterocyclic architectures.
