Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3,6-dichloro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (1.51 g, 10 mmol) in acetonitrile (70 ml) was added the sodium salt of 5-amino-1H-tetrazole (2.14 g, 10 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for 24 hours then allowed to cool to room temperature. The suspension was centrifuged until the supernatant liquid was clear. The liquid was decanted and the brown solid washed successively with acetonitrile and water. With each wash the solid was separated from the solvent by centrifugation followed by decantation. The isolated crude yield was 1.5 g (60%), this material was recrystallized from DMSO/methanol yielding an orange brown powder mp 264° C. dec; 1H NMR(deuteriomethylsulfoxide) ∂ 12.5(b,r s,4H); 13 C NMR (deuteriomethylsulfoxide) ∂ 151.74, 158.25; IR (KBr) 3421, 3000, 1615, 1436, 1127 cm−1.
