A crude mixture of 5-amino-2-methyltetrazole and 5-amino-1-methyltetrazole is treated with 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (48 mL, 71 g, 0.29 mol) in toluene (780 mL), and the mixture is stirred and refluxed for 5 hours. The resulting mixture is filtered to remove off the insoluble solid (5-amino-1-methyltetrazole), and the residue is washed with hot toluene. The filtrate is concentrated to give crude 2-methyl-N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylene]-2H-tetrazole-5-amine (70.1 g).
