Procedure

A solution of sodium nitrite (3.2 g) in concentrated sulphuric acid (22 ml) was added dropwise with cooling to a solution of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline (9.3 g) in glacial acetic acid (48 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for half an hour and then cooled to 0°-5°. A solution of sodium azide (2.6 g) in the minimum volume of water was added dropwise with cooling and the mixture stirred at 0°-5° for 1 hour and then at room temperature overnight. The mixture was poured into ice/water, extracted with dichloromethane and the extract worked up in conventional manner to give 1-azido-2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylbenzene, as a red oil. A solution cf this oil (25.6 g) and 2-propyn-1-ol (40 ml) in xylene (80 ml) were stirred under nitrogen and heated under reflux overnight. The mixture was cooled and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. Trituration of the residue with light petroleum (bp 30°-40°) gave a crude material which was purified by filtration through silica to give [1-(2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methanol, m.p.123°-125°.
