Hydrazine → 6-(Aminomethyl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A slurry of 2-(5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazin-6-ylmethyl)-isoindole-1,3-dione (4 g, 15.6 mmol) in DCM/EtOH (1:1) (150 mL) was charged with anhydrous hydrazine (1.23 mL, 39.0 mmol) and stirred at it for 18 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the off-white solid was triturated with warm CHCl3 and filtered through a fritted funnel. The solid was then triturated with hot boiling methanol (MeOH) and filtered through a flitted funnel resulting in an off-white solid. The material was triturated a second time as before and dried overnight resulting in the title compound as a white solid, which was taken on to the next step without further purification; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz) δ 3.88 (s, 2H), 8.31 (2, 1H); MS (ES+): m/z 127.07 (100) [MH+], HPLC: tR=0.34 min (MicromassZQ, polar—5 min).
