Potassium Carbonate → 3-hepta fluoropropylsulfanyl-1-(3-methyl-4-nitrobenzyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-1H-(1,2,4)-triazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Methyl-4-nitrobenzyl chloride (0.43 g), 3-heptafluoropropylsulfanyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1H-(1,2,4)-triazole (0.70 g), tetrabutylammonium iodide (0.09 g), 18-crown-6 (0.06 g) and potassium carbonate (0.48 g) were refluxed in acetonitrile (10 ml) for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction solution was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. After drying the organic layer with magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under the reduced pressure and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 3-heptafluoropropylsulfanyl-1-(3-methyl-4-nitrobenzyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-1H-(1,2,4)-triazole (0.30 g).
