Alkylation of 5-aryltetrazoles with 2- and 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohols

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

The reaction of salicylic alcohol with 5-aryltetrazoles gave mixtures of 2-[(5-aryl-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)methyl]- and 2-[(5-aryl-2H-tetrazol-2-yl)methyl]phenols. In the case of other ortho- and para-hydroxybenzyl alcohols, 2,5-disubstituted products were formed selectively. The criteria for detecting 1,5- and 2,5-disubstituted N-benzyltetrazoles by standard 1Н and 13С NMR spectroscopy have been identified.
