Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

The potassium salt produced in Example 2, and pyridine are stirred at 6° C. in benzene followed by rapid addition of oxalyl chloride. After stirring one half hour at 15° C. the mixture is stripped at 15° C., and scrubbed with two portions of benzene at 15° C. to yield 1-benzyl-1H-tetrazole-5-carbonyl chloride.
