Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-p-methoxybenzylthiotetrazole (7.00 g : 31.5 mMol.) in methanol (150 ml) is added under ice cooling a solution of diazomethane in ether (produced from 14 g of N-nitrosomethylurea), and the mixture is stirred for 1 hour and then concentrated. The residue is purified by Lobar column chromatography (toluene : ethyl acetate=5: 1) to give 5-p-methoxybenzylthio-2-methyltetrazole 4.86 g :
