Abstract:Tetrazolium-5-aminides have been prepared by tert-butylation of 5-aminotetrazole and its N-methyl derivatives by t-BuOH/HClO4 system followed by treatment of tetrazolium salts by alkali. These mesoionic compounds have been found to show higher reactivity of exocyclic N atom in comparison with 5-aminotetrazoles. They react with 1,2-dibromoethane and 5-(methylsulfonyl)-1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole and substitute bromine and methylsulfonyl groups giving tetrazolium salts or conjugate aminides. Obtained mesoionic tetrazo… Show more
