Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, a mixture of 2-chloro-N-(2-methylpropyl)-6-methyl-3-nitropyridin-4-amine (10.0 g, 41.0 mmol), sodium azide (2.67 g, 41.0 mmol), and anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (200 mL) was heated at 60° C. After 5 hours, the dark green solution was allowed to cool to room temperature, poured slowly into water (2 L), and stirred for fifteen minutes. A green precipitate formed, which was filtered and washed with water to yield 9.37 g of N-(2-methylpropyl)-5-methyl-8-nitrotetraazolo[1,5-α]pyridin-7-amine as a light green solid, m.p. 185-187° C.
