The direct carbonylation of C-H bonds in the benzene ring of N-phenylpyrazoles via catalysis by ruthenium or rhodium complexes is described. The reaction of N-phenylpyrazoles with carbon monoxide and ethylene in the presence of Ru-3(CO)(12) or Rh-4(CO)(12) resulted in the site-selective carbonylation of the ortho C-H bonds in the benzene ring to give the corresponding ethyl ketones. A variety of functional groups on the benzene ring can be tolerated. N-Phenylpyrazoles have higher reactivities than would be expected, based on the pK(a) values of the conjugate acid of pyrazole. The choice of solvent for this reaction is significant, and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) gives the best result.
