1-(5-Methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)ethanone

1-(5-Methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)ethanone is an experimental compound that belongs to the class of pyridazines. The molecule was first synthesized in 1933 and it has been studied for its photochemical properties. The structure of 1-(5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)ethanone consists of a pyrazole ring fused to an ethanone bearing a methyl substituent. It has been shown that irradiation with UV light causes the molecule to react with dichloromethane, leading to the formation of a series of intermediates, such as chloromethanes, dichloroethylenes, and benzene.
