“…According to the method of Hatton et al (1993), reaction of 2,6dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline with a suspension of nitrosylsulfuric acid, followed by reaction with a solution of ethyl 2,3dicyanopropionate in acetic acid, gave 5-amino-3-cyano-1-[2,6dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pyrazole, which was then reacted with 4-bromobenzaldehyde and hydrochloric acid in anhydrous ethanol to give the title compound, (I). This method is similar to that of many others Chen et al, 2005). Colourless single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of an anhydrous ethanolacetone (2:1) solution (m.p.…”
