Glycolic Acid → (6-Chloro-(1,2,4)triazolo(4,3-b)pyridazin-3-yl)methanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-chloro-6-hydrazinopyridazine (1.44 g, 9.96 mmol), glycolic acid (0.76 g, 10 mmol) and p-TsOH.H2O (2.37 g, 12.4 mmol) in toluene was refluxed overnight. Some oil formed at the bottom of the flask. LC-MS of this oil showed the desired product was formed. Toluene was decanted off, and the oil residue was suspended in water (10 mL), then basified with 3N aq. NaOH to pH=10, the resulting off-white solid was collected, and dried to give the title compound. LC-MS (ES+): 185/187 (3/1) [MH+]. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ=2.96 (br s, 1H, —OH), 5.25 (s, 2H), 7.17 (d, J=9.6 Hz, 1H), 8.11 (d, J=9.6 Hz, 1H).
