Procedure
1-(3-Methylphenyl)tetrazole (11.3 g) was cautiously added at 0° to fuming nitric acid (100 cm3) with stirring and the solution was then warmed on a steam bath for 5 minutes. The cooled solution was poured onto ice (200 g), and the solid material was filtered off, washed with water (100 cm3) and dried. Recrystallisation from ethyl acetate afforded 1-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)tetrazole, m.p. 166°-168° (9.4 g).
