Procedure

A solution of 2,6-diisopropyl aniline (0.97 g, 0.006 mol) and 5-decyl-2H-tetrazole-2-acetic acid (1.47 g, 0.006 mol) in 100 mL dichloromethane was cooled to 0° C. under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Solid DCC (1.19 g, 0.006 mol) was added in one portion and the resulting suspension was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 16 hours. Concentrated in vacuo and triturated the residue with diethyl ester. Filtered to remove the dicyclohexyl urea by-product. Concentrated the filtrate and triturated with hexanes to give the title compound (2.02 g, 86%) as an off-white solid, mp 108°-110° C.
