Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 178515425, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 100 volume parts of dry tetrahydrofuran are added 4.28 parts of comminuted anhydrous aluminum chloride, 2.50 parts of 4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyran-3-carbonitrile and 4.18 parts of sodium azide in this order and, the whole mixture is refluxed under stirring for 23 hours. Then, to the resulting mixture 35 volume parts of 15 weight% hydrochloric acid are added, followed by distilling off tetrahydrofuran under reduced pressure. The resulting solid residue is recovered by filtration and recrystallized from dimethylformamide. This procedure yields 3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl) chromone as colorless hairy needles. Melting point: 284°-285° C.(decomp. with foaming).
