Synthesis, X-Ray Crystal Structure, and Computational Study of Novel Pyrazolo[3,4-B]pyridin-3-Ol Derivatives

The related sulfonyl and acylated product ( 4–7 ) were obtained from the compound 3a and different sulfonyl and acyl chloride compounds. The sulfonylation of the compound 3a afforded the O1-sulfonylation, only, to give 3-substituted products 4–6 .

The acylation of the compound 3a gives 1,3-diacylated products 7 via N2, O1-diacylation. All compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods and the molecular structures of 3a and 4–7 were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The molecular structure of 5 and 7 were studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, reproduced the experimental geometry.
