Reaction Steps

4Fluoronitrobenzene (2 g, 0.014 mol), 1,2,4-triazole (1 g, 0.014 mol), potassium carbonate (1.96 g, 0.014 mol) were dissolved in DMSO (50 ml) and stirred at 90° C. for 24 h under dry conditions. The yellow suspension was poured into water (150 ml), extracted (EtOAc), dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated under reduced pressure to afford an orange solid which was purified by flash column chromatography on silica eluting with n-pentane/ethyl acetate (50-100%) to afford a white solid (2.57 g 97%).
