Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 8.75 parts of 4-amino-1-[(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)methyl]-1,2,4-triazolium methanesulfonate in 85 parts of a hydrochloric acid solution 1N were added 7.15 parts of phosphinic acid 50%. After cooling in ice, a solution of 3.5 parts of sodium nitrite in 15 parts of water was added. The mixture was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. An excess of concentrated ammonium hydroxide was added and stirring was continued for 15 minutes. The product was filtered off, washed with water, 2-propanol and 2,2'-oxybispropane and crystallized from 8 parts of 2-propanol. The product was filtered off and dried, yielding 5 parts (83.8%) of 1-[(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)methyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole; mp. 98.9° C. (int. 143).
