Abstract:  1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions of C-acetyl-iV-phenylnitrilimine with furan derivatives are described. 2-Methyl- and 2-ethylfuran afforded in addition to a byscycloadduct, a monocycloadduct, l-phenyl-3-acetyl-5-methyl(ethyl)-3a,6a-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyrazole. The reaction with furan re­sulted only in the bisadduct. As by-products, the dimer 3,6-diacetyl-l,4-diphenyl-l,4-dihydro-l,2,4?5-tetrazine and the products of decomposition of nitrilimine were isolated in all cases. The presence of the 1,3-addition product in the reaction mixture was not proved. The structures of the products were determined by ¹H-n.m.r., u.V., and i.r. spectroscopy as well as by dehydrogenation of the monoadduct with DDQ under the formation of l-phenyl-3-acetyl-5-methylfuro[3,2-c]pyrazole.
