Figure imgf000002_0001
Formula - 1
Where Ri = H, Cj - C4 alkyl group or benzyl group or phenyl group; R = Ct - C6 alkyl group or benzyl group.
BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART:
The compound 3 - amino pyrazole derivative of Formula - I is a useful active intermediate for the preparation of pharmaceutical compounds used for treatment of hyperuricemia and chronic gout, antiurolithic viz. Allopurinol, an inhibitor of smooth muscle cell growth particularly vascular re-narrowing after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, membrane proliferative nephris, arterioscleotic diseases, hypertension, or diabetes mellitus.
The prior art discloses various methods for the preparation of the base moiety of pyrazole derivative of Formula - II
Figure imgf000002_0002
Formula - II
Where Ri =H & R2 is as described above. The preparation of ethyl 3-amino-l H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate is disclosed in US Patent No US 2,868,803 wherein the process involves cyclization of ethoxy-methylene-cyanoacetic acid ethyl ester with hydrazine hydrate in presence of alcohol at reflux condition for 6 hours to afford ethyl 3-amino-lH-pyrazole-4-carboxylate as represented in scheme - 1.
Figure imgf000003_0001
Scheme - I
The starting ethoxy-methylene-cayanoacetic acid ethyl ester was prepared according to the process described in the Journal, J. Amer. Chem. Soc, 74(19), 4889 - 4891 (1952), wherein the reaction of ethyl orthoformate with ethyl cyanoacetate is carried out at reflux to afford oily product which is distilled under vacuum to isolate pure intermediate compound..
Another method for preparation of ethyl 3-amino-lH-pyrazole-4-carboxylate is reported in the Journal, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 50(4), 957 - 960 (1977). The process disclosed involves reaction of amidrazone derivatives and ethyl 2-cyano-3- ethoxyacrylate in ethanol to give intermediate N-(2-cyano-2-ethoxycarbonylvinyl) amidrazone derivative, which is cyclised by refluxing in toluene to give ethyl 3-amino- lH-pyrazole-4-carboxylate. The method is as reported in scheme - II.
Figure imgf000003_0002
Scheme - II The US patent US 4,468,353 disclosed a process for preparation of intermediate alkoxymethylene compounds used for preparing 3-amino-lH-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. Wherein the ethoxy-methylene-cayanoacetic acid ethyl ester is prepared by reacting ethyl cyanoacetate with orthoformic acid triethyl ester in the presence of acetic anhydride at 130°C to 150°C. The method is as reported in scheme - 111.
Figure imgf000004_0001
Scheme - III
The drawbacks of the prior art are:
1. the intermediate compound requires high vacuum distillation to isolate pure compound;
2. requires the use of acetic anhydride for the reaction which is to be removed under vacuum to isolate pure intermediate;
3. requires high temperature of 130°C for the preparation of the intermediate;
4. requires the use of solvent for reaction with hydrazine hydrate and during the cyclisation of the intermediate.
Therefore there remains a need for an improved process which ameliorates the problems of the prior art processes and is industrially rugged and useful.
The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of 3 - amino pyrazole derivatives in which the intermediate formed is solid and does not require high vacuum distillation of the intermediate and the reaction with hydrazine hydrate is carried out in water at lower temperature which makes the process rigid and operator friendly, therefore industrially useful.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for the preparation of 3 - amino pyrazole derivatives of Formula - I, using economical and environment friendly solvent.
Another objective of the present invention is to prepare 3 - amino pyrazole derivatives of Formula - 1 having high purity.
