comparative example 1
The difference from example 1 is that, without carrying out step (2), the 3-methylpyrazole purity was 83.2%.
As is clear from the above examples and comparative examples, the present invention can remove the isomer C-2 by introducing the step (2), and further improve the purity (> 95%) of the final product 3-methylpyrazole, and further, the purity can be more than 97% under preferable conditions.
