The reaction was diluted with 100 mL water and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic extracts were concentrated and purified by flash chromatography on a 160 g silica gel cartridge with 25 to 50% EtOAc in hexane to yield 4-chloro-6-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)pyrimidine (2.78 g, 38% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 9.21 (1H, s), 8.87 (1H, s), 8.15 (1H, s), 7.91 (1H, s). LCMS: RT=0.68 min, MH+=182.1.
