Sulfuryl chloride → 1H-Tetrazole-5-sulfenyl chloride, 1-phenyl-

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sulfuryl chloride (4.5 grams, 0.056 mol) was added dropwise at 10° C. to a mixture comprised of 10 grams (0.056 mol) of 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazole and 100 ml of dichloromethane: The reaction mixture was then stirred for 2 hours at room temperature, after which the low boiling point compounds were removed by distillation under reduced pressure at a temperature of from 30° C. to 40° C. and 1-phenyltetrazol-5-sulfenyl chloride was obtained.
