Nitrogen → 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-methyl-2H-tetrazole

A mixture of 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2H-tetrazole (6.61 g, 40.3 mmol), K2CO3 (6.68 g, 48.3 mmol), and iodomethane (3.02 mL, 48.3 mmol) in acetonitrile (115 mL) was heated to reflux (ca. 82° C.) for one hour. After cooling, the mixture was concentrated to dryness and the residue was partitioned between water (75 mL) and EtOAc (100 mL). The layers were separated, the aqueous layer was back-extracted with EtOAc (50 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with water (50 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over anh. MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to give 9.5 g as a colorless oil that solidified upon standing. The residue was purified by flash chromatography to give 2 main products: Intermediate 35B as the N2 isomer: 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-methyl-2H-tetrazole (5.09 g, 70.9% yield) as a white solid: No NOE observed between the methyl group at 4.42 ppm and the aromatic protons; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 4.42 (s, 3H) 7.33-7.45 (m, 2H) 8.03-8.14 (m, 2H); MS m/z 179.2 (M+H)+; HPLC >99.5%, RT=1.75 minutes.
