of either dry chloroform or dichloromethane was treated with triethylamine
(0.46 mL, 3.3 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at rt until the
disappearance of the starting materials, as evidenced by TLC. After the
reaction was complete, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure.
For pyrazoles 4, 5, and 6, the crude products were purified by triturating with
hexanes. For Spiro-pyrazolines 8, 9, and 10, the crude products were purified
by flash column chromatography over silica gel by using 4:1, 9:1, and 7:3
hexanes–ethyl acetate eluant systems, respectively.
