A series of pyrazolopyridines has been prepared by nitrosation of 3-acetamido-4-methylpyridines and subsequent rearrangement and cyclisation of the N-acetyl-N-nitroso-compounds produced.The reactions of the pyrazolopyridines have been investigated. 1- and 2-Acetyl and 1- and 2-benzyl compounds were obtained and their structures elucidated spectroscopically.The ring system readily undergoes electrophilic substitution in the 3-position. 7-Chloropyrazolopyridine has been shown to be more susceptible to nucleophilic substitution than the isomeric 5-chloro-compound.
