Reaction of N,N'-(ethane-1,2-diyl)bis[2-cyano-3-(dimethylamino)acrylamide] (20) with hydrazine
hydrate.
To a solution of the compound 20 (0.30 g, 1 mmol) in EtOH (20 mL), hydrazine hydrate (80%, 0.2 mL, 2
mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 4 h, then left to cool. The solid product so
formed was filtered off, washed with EtOH and dried. Recrystallized from DMF afforded
3,3'-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azanediyl)bis[1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile] (23), yield (66%), mp > 300 °C; IR
