Reaction Steps

After the addition of 2.5 g of p-toluenesulphonic acid hydrate, 34.5 g (0.5 mol) of triazole in 222 g (1.5 mol) of triethyl orthoforrnate are heated until the internal temperature reaches 150° C., while ethanol is distilled off. 2 g of sodium carbonate are added and the mixture is distilled using high vacuum. 48.6 g (56.8% of theory) of N-diethoxymethyltriazole are obtained.
