“…Tetrazoles are an important class of heterocycle prepared from cyanamide and are present in several drug molecules. [15] Organic cyanamides are prepared by the reaction of cyanogen chloride/bromide with amines or with imide salts. [16] However, the preparation of cyanogen halide involves the use of extremely toxic potassium/ sodium cyanide and bromine make the protocol environmentally unacceptable.…”

“…The acidity of the tetrazole NH group corresponds roughly to that of the carboxylic acid 5 . Interest in tetrazole chemistry over the past few years has been increasing rapidly, mainly as a result of the role played by this heterocyclic functionality in medicinal chemistry as a metabolically stable surrogate for carboxylic acid functionalities [6][7][8] . Tetrazoles are well known compounds with a number of biological activities [9][10][11][12] such as antibacterial, antifungal and analgesic.…”
