Introduction
Heterocyclic nuclei have the potential to gain interest in a pharmacological activity for their application as a scaffold in the intent of biologically potent compounds [1, 2]. Multicomponent reaction (MCR) is a process contained in a chemical reaction; the combination of three or more reactants results in products in which all the reactions are essential parts of substantial chemistry. MCRs comply with several of the strict requirements of good for organic synthesis. These protocols are valuable and efficient organic synthesis from easily offered starting compounds in a single phase with the intrinsic flexibility to create molecular complexities, and diversification by reducing time, cost, and waste material [3,4,5]. Pyranopyrazoles are privileged motifs with two nitrogen atoms in 1, 2-positions and because of its structurally diverse biological range, one oxygen has received a lot of interest in medicinal chemistry [6]. Therefore, the progress of MCR in synthetic chemistry and methods for producing heterocyclic molecules have received Excellent focus. Pyranopyrazole is present in four isomeric forms such as pyrano[2,3-c] pyrazole (I), pyrano[3,2-c] pyrazole (II), pyrano[3,4-c] pyrazole (III), pyrano[4,3-c] pyrazole (IV), out of this isomeric form isomer pyrano[2,3-c] pyrazole (I) is broadly explored as it has high medicinal and industrial prominence in Fig. 1.
Pyranopyrazole rings possess broadly a variety of biological processes, including antimicrobial [7], anti-inflammatory [8, 9], and anticancer [10]. In particular, pyranopyrazole is regarded as a scaffold in the therapy of inhibitors of human Chk1 kinase [11]. Some of these biologically active molecules are shown in Fig. 2.
Using pyrazole-5-ones and tetracyanoethylene compounds, in 1973, Junek and Aigner synthesized pyrano [2,3-c] pyrazole motifs (5) [12]. Later on, in the subsequent years, there was an overwhelming response to the development of (5), and several experimental pyrazoles on heterocyclic compounds were performed up to mid-2023. Earlier reviews and book chapters are fascinating, mainly focused on the synthesizing and therapeutic application of pyranopyrazole motifs and suggesting potential heterocyclic compound [13,14,15,16]. In recent years, efforts have focused on significant pyranopyrazole candidates with extensive biological activities. However, to our knowledge in recent years, the correlation between pyranopyrazole derivatives and their biological activities has yet to be reviewed. Thus, the idea of the current review is to sum up pyranopyrazole development strategies and biological activities for those committed to designing novel compounds in the near future. Herein, we summarized the synthesis of pyranopyrazole heterocyclic compounds, based on the classification of the nature of catalysts Fig. 3.
General method for synthesis pyranopyrazole
Pyranopyrazole (5) synthesized using multicomponent reaction (MCR) carried out four-component transformations. Ethyl acetoacetate (1) and hydrazine hydrates (2) were mixed into a round bottom flask and then aromatic aldehydes (3) and malononitrile (4) were added in the presence of a catalyst to offer a product. The general representation of (Scheme 1) and mechanism is given in Fig. 4.

Kondabanthini et al. developed synthesis (5), the reaction was carried out in Wang resin (Wang-OSO3H) acid catalyst by employing four components (1) (2) (3), and (4) in demineralized water under ultrasound irradiation with good yield. In silico interactions between compounds 5a and 5b and the residues GLN345 and ASN346 resulted in two significant H-bond interactions, which were reflected in their estimated total energy. Evaluation of 5a and 5b against SIRT1 revealed promoter inhibitory activity in agreement with docking study findings in vitro. Compounds 5a and 5b were discovered to be the most active in this series (Scheme 4) [25].

Nguyen et al. developed a new synthetic protocol for the synthesis of (8) derivatives from (5) and aniline (7) at RT in ethanol and the presence of the catalyst which is amorphous carbon-supported sulfonic acid (AC-SO3H). This protocol AC-SO3H has many significant applications like good yield and cost-effective, non-poisons, and stability of catalyst (Scheme 6) [27].
Base-catalyzed reaction
Darandale et al. introduced a convenient method using diversified substitution (1), with (2) and (3) with (4) diverse synthesis of (5) using mild NaHSO3 in ultrasound irradiations in neat condition. This approach showed an environmentally benign effect with reaction time with high yields of reaction (Scheme 7) [28]. Siddekhab et al. showed synthesis of (5) from (1), (2), (3), and (4) and mild organic base imidazole in aqueous media. Authors highlighted many advantages such as simple workup producers, and high yield of reaction (Scheme 7) [29]. Anatoliy M. Shestopalov and co-workers describe the synthesis of substituted (5) by using (1), (2), (3), and (4) protocol is an expedient toward (5) using Et3N as a catalyst for reaction (Scheme 7) [30].
By utilizing isatin (9), (4), (2), and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates (10) in Et3N, Pal et al. developed the synthesis of derivatives of (5). The authors screened numerous bases for experimental conditions to increase the reaction yield. Et3N was effective in terms of yields and less time and one step to formed one C–O two C–C and two C–N bonds (Scheme 8) [31]. Kiyani et al. prepared (5) making a mild base using sodium benzoate, the condensation reaction of (1), (2), (3), and (4), in H2O at RT for reaction to give good yields of reaction (Scheme 9) [32]. Kanchithalaivan et al. investigated aliphatic base [DIPEA] for the synthesis of newer protocol for diversified (5) domino reactions of (1), DMAD (10) with (2), (3), and (E)-N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethenamine (11) in ethanol. Synthesized derivatives have diversified to synthesizing previous compounds (5) for the same reaction condtion (Scheme 10) [33].

Compounds (12) with sequential multicomponent reactions of isotonic anhydride/isatin (9) and (2), 3-methyl-pyrazolones (6) by employing Et3N as basic catalyst in CH2Cl2 at RT. This approach offers various benefits including faster reaction times and good yields of reaction (Scheme 11) [34] D. A. Bakhotmah et al. developed a base-catalyzed heterocyclization reaction, which produces potentially bioactive (5). These compounds in both the one and two heterocyclic systems are combined on a single molecular scaffold. Additionally, the stated protocol has certain noticeable applications, such as quick response times and simple workup procedure (Scheme 12) [35]. Bania et al. developed a domino the Rauhut–Currier cyclization reaction within the unsaturated pyrazolones (15) and nitro-olefins (16) in the presence of DMAP catalytic asymmetric synthesis of (5) with yields ranging from moderate to good, along with excellent diastereoselectivities, formation of homocoupled product. First-time use of nitrostyrene in the Rauhut–Currier cyclization reaction, these are some salient features of this reaction (Scheme 13) [36]. According to Prabhakaran et al., a three-component reaction in one pot involving (3), N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethamine (NMSM) (11), and thiazolidinedione (17) are catalyzed by piperidine and results in the production of derivatives of phenyl-pyrano-thiazol-2-one (17) formed. A simple and quick synthesis method using intramolecular O-cyclization and domino Knoevenagel condensation results in a series of phenyl-pyrano-thiazol-2-one (18) derivatives with a moderate-to-good yield of product. It makes it easier to use multicomponent reactions in ways like lesser reaction times, being cost-effective, increasing structural diversity, and, most remarkably, purifying compounds using easy filtration (Scheme 14) [37]. Kumaravel et al. demonstrated an exact combination of MCRs from facile components in an aqueous medium within one step at room temperature. For the synthesis of pyranopyrazole-4H-chromene hybrid motif (5), two equivalents of (1), (2), (3), and (4) were treated with piperidine-catalyzed aqueous medium at RT offering good yields of product (Scheme 15) [38].

Ebrahimi et al. introduce a simple synthesis of (5) using various (1), (2), (3), and (4) in Ionic liquids as 3-methyl-1-(4-sulphonicacid)butylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate [(CH2)4SO3HMIM][HSO4]. The main features of the reaction are good yields, lesser reaction times, without chromatographic techniques and the reaction's catalyst's ability to be used again for reaction (Scheme 17) [40]. In brief, Syed Abed and co-workers have introduced an entirely new task-specific ionic liquid (TSIL), 2-carboxy-N,N-diethylethanaminium acetate denoted [Et2NH(CH2)2CO2H][ACO], as an eco-friendly catalyst. In situ-produced arylidenemalononitriles were used in the Knoevenagel reaction under neat conditions to produce (5) and another dihydropyrano[3,2-c]chromene. The proposed methodology was highlighted for its sustainable process, good-to-exceptional yields, no chromatographic purification, and the catalyst can be reused for up to six reaction cycles without losing activity (Scheme 17). [41]
Zonouz et al. developed a straightforward method for synthesizing (5) derivatives, an environmentally friendly reaction media, and a deep eutectic solvent. A simple operational methodology avoids using potentially hazardous solvents and catalysts in the reaction, allowing for shorter reaction durations and higher yields of the target molecules (Scheme 18) [42]. Hajipour and colleagues developed a four-component synthesis of (5) using a new approach by [H-NMP]HSO4] and [ChCl][ZnCl2]2. IL has low-cost and reusable acidic ionic liquids with good-to-excellent yield of product. Using both an environmentally friendly safe IL findings indicated that ionic liquids in terms of their lack of by-products, and capacity to be reused for reaction (Scheme 18) [43]. In summary, Toreshettahally et al. have developed a rapid, green procedure for the four-component reaction of (2), (3), (4), and (1) Choline chloride–urea catalyzed synthesis as an ecologically safe RT-IL for the production of substituted (5) (Scheme 18) [44]. The condensation processes of four components in one-pot are (1), (2), (3), and propanedinitrile (4). Nimbalkar et al. reported the utilization of [Et3NH][HSO4] from the Bronsted acid ionic liquid (BAIL) catalyst for the multicomponent synthesis of (5) under solvent-free conditions. Over currently employed reaction techniques, the innovative methodology has several benefits, providing high yields, a shorter reaction time, gentle reaction conditions, and a reusable catalyst as a catalyst for multicomponent synthesis (Scheme 18) [45].
Four-component, one-pot synthesis of (5) was described by Deshmukh et al. with (1), (2), (3), and (4) in ethanol and [H-NMP][MeSO3] ionic liquid catalyst. It is an environmentally benign protocol, clean, quick, high-yielding, and easily purifiable. Additionally, the reaction process is fairly straightforward to workup. Consequently, it can be applied to large-scale manufacture of (5) (Scheme 19) [46].
Bihani et al. showed a completely eco-friendly and enhanced procedure for producing (5) by a four-component reaction comprising a combination of (1), (2), (3), and (4) in boiling water (1:1) at reflux. A similar synthesis was started from aliphatic aldehydes while performed without the use of a catalyst (Scheme 20) [47]. Dekamin et al. produced (5) using a four-component, one-pot reaction of (1), (2), (3), and (4). The intended medicinally significant (5) derivatives are produced utilizing the ball milling process at room temperature without using a catalyst or solvent. This approach has several advantages including mild reaction conditions, high quantitative yields, low cost, and easy set-up. It also does not use any hazardous catalysts or solvents (Scheme 20) [48]. Moosavi-Zare et al. use an acetic acid functionalized pyridinium salt, 1-(carboxymethyl) pyridiniumiodide [CMPY]I, as a reusable catalyst for the one-pot tandem four-component condensation process of (5), a simple, an efficient, and an environmentally friendly synthetic process using (1), (2), (3), and (4) at 100 °C under neat condition (Scheme 20) [24].

Sulfonated carboxymethyl cellulose was done using a novel, eco-friendly process. CMC demonstrated the catalytic activity for multicomponent one-pot synthesis of (5), the biopolymer-derived solid acid catalyst derivatives using the reaction of (1), (2), and various (3) and (4) in EtOH. Some significant application of the reported protocol includes the usage of a stable, recoverable, and non-toxic catalyst, a non-chromatographic product of purification, and an environmentally friendly reaction (Scheme 20) [49].
M.R. Bhosle et al. developed a simple protocol for synthesis (5) by one-pot cyclocondensation of (1), (2), (3), and (4) in DES. This method has facilitated the production of (5) in a shorter amount of time with higher yields (Scheme 21) [50]. Herein, Dwivedi et al. have formed a brand-new, straightforward, an effective, synthesis of (5) using arylidenemalononitrile (19) and pyrazolone (6) in aqueous extract of Banana Peels (WEB) as a reaction medium at room temperature. Benefits of this protocol include an environmentally benign with high-to-outstanding yields including quick reactions, and simple product isolation without the need for column chromatography. The method displays a green matrix, a high atom economy for reaction (Scheme 21) [51]. Ashishkumar katariya et al. developed regioselective synthesis of fully functionalized (5) in one-pot condensation of (6) or (1) and (2), (3) with NMSM (11) in [(EMIM)Ac] IL neat condition. Domino protocol involves Knoevenagel condensation followed by Michael addition and O-cyclization with an eradication of the methanethiol group, which created C–C, C–N, and C–O, bonds. Strategy's noteworthy features include excellent yield with rapid reaction times (Scheme 21) [52]. To produce (5) Sharifi Aliabadi et al. used the imidazole-based IL, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydroxide [Bmim][OH] as a catalyst. Synthesis of (5) was carried out using this organo-solid catalyst in a microwave at 230 W (Scheme 21) [53].

The reported method displayed some prominent advantages like an inexpensive and easy-to-handle catalyst, high efficiency concerning time and yield, green solvent, and simple reaction set-up (Scheme 22) [56]. Chakraborty and co-workers reported a facile, productive, and green method for the synthesis of (5) compounds by using water-SDS-ionic liquid with a sequential multicomponent approach using (3), (4), and pyrazolin-5-one (6). This protocol has some key applicability such as high yield, environmentally friendly conditions, recyclability of the reaction medium, and chromatography-free purification (Scheme 22) [57].
Nano-catalyzed reaction
Maleki and colleagues looked into the synthesis of (5) using isatin or acetophenones (9), (1), (2), and (3). This protocol offers mild conditions, quick reaction time, and high yields. They also provided a straightforward procedure for forming a brand-new functionalized magnetic NPs catalyst based on cellulose. The nanocomposite was easily separated using a magnet, and it was reused several times with no deterioration significantly in performance (Scheme 23) [58]. Unique features include an environmentally friendly, and biological approach for silver nanoparticles that have been designed by Jitender M. Khurana and co-workers using an easily accessible aqueous leaf extract of Cinnamomum tamala as their stabilizing and reducing agent with the aid of these Ag NPs the production of (5). This technique is appealing and practical because of the catalysts, eco-friendliness simplicity of recovery, and capacity to be reused many times (Scheme 24) [59]. In an aqueous environment with a catalytic amount of CuI NPs, Safaei-Ghomi et al. investigated a unique process for highly functionalized (5) from (2), (3), (4), Meldrum's acid (21), and acid chlorides (22). The approach has several advantages including in situ synthesis of (1) gentle reaction conditions, and an easy workup procedure with excellent yields. Moreover, the catalyst was recoverable and could be used repeatedly with nearly constant catalytic activity (Scheme 25) [60].
In this study, Kargar et al. controlled the interaction between the inorganic complexes and the support material to combine an excellent activity magnetic NPs Fe3O4@NFC@Co (II) ending complex as a multi-nuclear catalyst. This treatment employs cobalt acetate, a technique that is favorable to the environment. It is possible to form (5) and the magnetic Fe3O4@NFC@Co (II) as an eco-friendly, revolutionary, and effective catalyst that has a high yield, rapid reaction time, and simple procedure (Scheme 26) [61]. Here, graphene oxide nanosheets (GO@melamine) on (ZnO NPs), and Fe3O4 NPs were combined by Rezza et al. to make effective, multifunctional NPs (Fe3O4 NPs). Additionally, two applications for the prepared Fe3O4/GO@melamine-ZnO nanocomposites have been used for the first time as a catalyst for the rapid synthesis of (5) derivatives with high yields (Scheme 26) [62].
Nesseri et al. rapidly developed a magnetic NPs-based hyper-branched polyglycerol catalyst in an aqueous solution from affordable starting materials, effectively catalyzing the synthesis of (5) in a neat environment at room temperature. These catalytics are simplicity of recovery from the reaction using a magnet, and ability to be reused numerous times without appreciably deteriorating performance are further environmentally favorable qualities of the catalyst (Scheme 27) [63]. In the present study, Rahman et al. concentrated on the synthesis of an organo-nanocatalyst and using it to synthesis (5) derivatives as a magnetic organo-nanocatalyst, vitamin B1 supported by Fe2O3@SiO2 NPs was employed to synthesize (5) derivatives from (1), (2), (3), and (4) in a water–ethanol mixture at RT. The coordination of carbonyl oxygen and nitrile nitrogen by vitamin B1 supported by Fe2O3@SiO2 NPs increases the electrophilic character of the corresponding carbons for simple nucleophilic attack. In this work, the catalyst was recycled and used again up to 6 times after the reaction had ended without significantly losing any of its activity (Scheme 28) [64].
In this study, Babaei et al. synthesized (5) in H2O:ethanol under reflux conditions with nano-Al2O3/BF3/Fe3O4 acting as a catalyst. The catalyst was removed from the reaction mixture by an external magnet, allowing it to be reused numerous times, without losing its activity. The benefits of this strategy include a straightforward purification process and a clean, practical procedure (Scheme 29) [65]. Ghorbani et al. designed and prepared nanocatalysts (PhAzLa = Fe3O4@SiO2@CPTES@PhAzPhDA@La) and characterized them with different spectroscopic methods.The prepared nanocatalyst was used for the synthesis of a wide range of (5) from the reaction of (1), (2), (3), and (4) at 110 °C with 64–97% yields at neat condition (Scheme 29) [66].
Khadijeh Saki and colleagues reported condensation reactions within (1), (2), (3), and (4) to produce derivatives (5). This derivative was reacted with salicylaldehyde to produce nano-Fe-[phenylsalicylaldiminemethylpyranopyrazole]Cl2 (23) (nano[Fe-PSMP]Cl2). Compounds (5) were produced using the completely characterized nano-Schiff base complex, which also served as an effective catalyst (Scheme 30) [67].
Sunil Tekale et al. described ZnO NPs-catalyzed synthesis of (5) from (1), (2), (3), and (4) in an aqueous reaction medium, making it an environmentally friendly way to synthesis (5). In an aqueous medium, a reusable heterogeneous nano-ZnO catalyst is used. This protocol was used without chromatographic method for purification that consumes minimum time are few of the noticeable applications of the current protocol. It successfully used nanocatalysis as green chemistry and synergistic effects (Scheme 31) [68]. In this study, Ali Maleki and co-workers fabricated a clay-based natural green magnetic nanocatalyst. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were covalently grafted onto poly(ethylene imine), which were then loaded with magnetic NPs. For the production of (5) derivatives, Fe3O4@HNTs-PEI catalytic activity was evaluated. This heterogeneous catalyst demonstrated good efficacy in green media at RT and is readily recoverable from the reaction mixture using an external magnet, allowing for reuse at least 8 times without loss in catalytic activity (Scheme 31) [69].
According to Abd El Aleem et al. magnetic Fe3O4 NPs worked well as a heterogeneous catalyst and combination of (1), (2), (3), and (4) in water at RT to produce a series of (5). Accordingly, results were attributed to the catalyst's ability to function as a nano-size of nearly 16 nm. The advantages of this reaction are rapid reaction times, clean, simple purification, high yields, and affordable catalyst availability (Scheme 32) [70]. Safaei-Ghomi et al. developed a simple method for the synthesis of (5) derivatives using a one-pot, four-component condensation process of (1), (2), (3), and (4) using ZnFe2O4 NPs in a solvent-free and eco-friendly. Benefits of this approach include short reaction times, high yields, simplicity of set-up, and environmental friendliness (Scheme 32) [71].
Borhade et al. investigated ZnS NPs in the RT for synthesis of (5) as a heterogeneous catalyst utilizing the grinding process, hydrothermal process was utilized to synthesis the ZnS nanoparticles, and they are easily recoverable and reusable for up to 5 runs no significantly losing their catalytic activity (Scheme 33) [72]. Parallel, Saha et al. synthesized (5) using ZrO2 NPs used for reaction at room temperature, active hydroxyl, oxide, and Zr4+ may be present on the surface of ZrO2 NPs, functioning as Lewis's acids or bases after the 10th cycle, the ZrO2 NPs tetragonal plane and catalytic activity remained unaltered (Scheme 33) [73].
Safari et al. used montmorillonite K-10 as the template, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane as the linker, and chlorosulfonic acid as the source of SO3H to generate zwitterionic sulfamic acid functionalized nano-clay MMT-ZSA. Catalyst was investigated in the multicomponent reaction involving (2), (4), (1) and carbonyl compounds (1,2-di ketones and benzaldehyde derivatives) (24) to produce (5) derivatives under clean circumstances. Compounds listed above were synthesized using this approach with quick reaction times and high-to-exceptional yields. Mild process, heterogeneous reaction conditions, a wide range of functional group tolerance, and catalyst reusability are significant features of the reaction (Scheme 34) [74]. Parallelly Dadaei et al. showed an efficient method for the synthesis of (5) derivatives by using CoCuFe2O4 silica-supported behavior melamine as a magnetic nanocatalyst. On the surface of a nanostructure, a catalyst potential active site has functionalized. These magnetic nanocatalyst key advantages are its efficiency as a heterogeneous catalyst, ease of application, minimal catalyst use, non-toxicity, high yields and simple set-up of the end products, rapid reaction times, and repeatability. Excellent magnetic and chemical stability can be found in the central core nanoparticles. As a result, cobalt ferrite's magnetic moment relaxes far more slowly than magnetite with a similar particle size (Scheme 34) [75].
The distinctive Nd-Salen Schiff base complex immobilized mesoporous silica was produced by Rather et al. using a catalyst to adsorb NdCl3 on mesoporous-SiO2 (Nd-SM). It was employed as a catalyst for the synthesis of (5) at 70 °C in a neat condition. The catalyst was recycled up to six times for the reaction (Scheme 35) [76]. An IL-based nanocatalyst (Fe3O4@SiO2@(CH2)3NH@ CC@Imidazole@SO3H) was claimed to have been synthesized by Akbarpour et al. while the activity of the catalyst was investigated in the synthesis of (5) derivatives, the prepared catalyst was characterized using a variety of spectroscopic techniques. The reaction was carried out within a minimum time and high yield using starting materials (3), (6), and (4) in the presence of the catalyst in solvent-free condition at 110 °C (Scheme 35) [77].
Mahtab Moeinimehr et al. studied the novel heterogeneous and recyclable catalyst Nano-N-sulfonated (SO3H) phthalocyanine molten salt (vanadium-oxo pyridiniumporphyrazinato sulfonic acid) [VO(TPPASO3H)]Cl. The catalyst, which has two active sites, is used for synthesis of (5) and its different derivatives. Protocol provides significant advantages such as shorter reaction times, high yields, simple set-up, and moderate reaction conditions (Scheme 36) [78]. According to Fereshte et al., the catalyst used hydrolyzed Arabic gum-g-polyacrylonitrile/ZnFe2O4 (Hyd AG-g-PAN/ZnFe2O4) for efficient production of (5) from (4), (3), (2), and (1). Zinc ferrite magnetic particles, Arabic gum (AG) as the support, N, N-methylene bisacrylamide crosslinking with ammonium persulfate as an initiator, and alkaline solution for hydrolyzation, which has distinct acidic and basic sites and a soft three-dimensional cross-linked framework, could be used as an effective catalyst for the synthesis of (5). Additionally, before losing its effectiveness the catalyst can be used at least 6 more times in subsequent reaction cycles at 80 °C was reusability (Scheme 36) [79].
Bread waste from CoFe2O4@TBW was used by Firouz Matloubi Moghaddam et al. to produce core–shell magnetic NPs. The required technique was used to characterize the prepared heterogeneous catalyst. Synthesis of (5). Additionally, the new heterogeneous magnetic catalyst is easily recoverable with a magnet and reused up to 10 times with no significant loss of catalytic activity, making it both environmentally safe and financially feasible to carry out the desired transformations (Scheme 37) [80]. Heterogeneous catalytic system developed by Bagherian Jamnani et al. used g-C3N4/THAM. To design the derivatives of (5) and in multicomponent reactions (MCRs), the innovative g-C3N4/THAM NPs were characterized and appropriately examined. Relevant reaction products were generated with exceptional efficiency by tuning the previously reported NPs, and the reversibility process was afterwards examined. The ecologically friendly g-C3N4/THAM nanocatalyst was used to catalyze the processes using ethanol (Scheme 37) [81]. The special Fe3O4-TiO2 nanocatalyst made of naturally occurring magnetic biochar was synthesized by Dharmendra et al. that characterized it and used to synthesize physiologically active (5) derivatives using (1), (2), (3), and (4) operated at 60 °C, the reaction was conducted with good yield while using H2O: EtOH as the solvent.
