Claisen condensation between diethyl oxalate (X) and 2-butanone (XI) leads to the diketo ester (XII), which is subsequently cyclized with hydrazine hydrate to furnish the pyrazolecarboxylate (XIII). After alkaline hydrolysis of ester (XIII), the resultant pyrazolecarboxylic acid (XIV) is nitrated by fuming HNO3 in hot H2SO4 to provide (XV). Chlorination of acid (XV) with SOCl2, followed by treatment with ammonia in THF yields the pyrazolecarboxamide (XVI). The alkylation of pyrazole (XVI) with iodomethane and Cs2CO3 leads to a mixture of N-methylated regioisomers (XVII) and (XVIII), which are separated by crystallization, followed by column chromatography. The desired isomer (XVII) is further reduced by catalytic hydrogenation to the aminopyrazole (XIX)
