In a similar manner to the reported procedure [1,2], b-pyrazolic amino acid [3] (2 mmoles) was dissolved in acetic anhydride. The mixture was heated at 80°C with stirring. The reaction was complete after 2 hours. After cooling, the solvent was evaporated. The oily residue was dissolved in ether and kept at O°C. A white solid precipitate formed, which was collected by filtration and washed several times with ether. Yield: 85%.

Melting point = 152-153 °C.

MS: m/z = 304 (M+1).

IR (KBr, cm-1): 1758 (C=O), 1614 (C=N), 1580 (C=N).
