01 /Applications

Heterocyclic building block

Used as a pyrazole building block in chemical synthesis, where the ring nitrogen and the carboxylate ester provide convenient handles for further functionalisation and ring elaboration.

Pharmaceutical intermediate

The methyl ester is a versatile intermediate for preparing pyrazole-based active pharmaceutical ingredients and candidate molecules. It allows controlled access to the corresponding acids, amides and substituted pyrazoles.

Agrochemical synthesis

Substituted pyrazole carboxylates are well-documented scaffolds in crop-protection chemistry. This ester can serve as a starting material in the assembly of agrochemical actives and related structures.

Ester and amide derivatisation

The carbomethoxy group is readily hydrolysed to the free carboxylic acid or converted to amides and hydrazides, making the compound a practical precursor for diversified pyrazole libraries.

Laboratory research reagent

Supplied at 97% assay, it is suitable for method development, medicinal-chemistry exploration and other research applications requiring a defined pyrazole-3-carboxylate scaffold.
