Methyl iodide → 3-methyl-4-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-3-ium iodide

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)pyridine, excess methyl iodide, and acetonitrile were added to a 100 mL round-bottom flask and refluxed for about 19 hours. The reaction was concentrated and the resulting solid was recrystallized from ethyl acetate and methanol. The precipitate was filtered and dried in vacuo at 60° C. The following 3-methyl-4-phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-3-ium iodide structure was confirmed:
