Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → HCID 54319379, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.7 g (8.5 mmoles) of 2,3,5-tri-O-methyl-D-ribose are dissolved in 5 ml of absolute methanol. While stirring, 4.25 g (85 mmoles) of 100% hydrazine hydrate (dissolved in 5 ml of absolute methanol) are added. As a result slight heating occurs. Stirring is carried out for 2 days of room temperature. Following this methanol and superfluous hydrazine hydrate are removed in a rotary evaporator at room temperature (oil pump vacuum). Following this drying is carried out for one day under oil pump vacuum. A colorless oil is obtained. Yield: 1.6 g (92 %).
