Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-cyano-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-β -D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazole (7.04 g., 20.0 mmole) ammonium chloride (1.07 g., 20.0 mmol) and anhydrous ammonia (150 ml.) was heated in a bomb at 85° for 18 hours. After removal of excess ammonia, the residue was crystallized from acetonitrile-ethanol to provide 5.30 g. (95%) of product with M.P. 177°-179° dec.
