Electric Literature of 16681-65-5, New Advances in Chemical Research in 2021. The dynamic chemical diversity of the numerous elements, ions and molecules that constitute the basis of life provides wide challenges and opportunities for research. 16681-65-5, name is 1-Methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole, molecular formula is C3H5N3, its traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, below Introduce a new synthetic route.
1-Methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole was prepared according to the literature reference W02008/98104. To a 2 L flask containing 1-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole (9 g, 108.3 mmol) was added THF (1500 mL) and the solution was cooled to -40 C. To this colorless homogeneous solution was added n-butyllithium (2.5 M in hexanes, 45 mL, 112.5 mmol) dropwise which immediately afforded a dark brown viscous mixture. The mixture was kept between -10 to -20 C. for 60 minutes, then a THF solution of 2,4-dimethylthiazole-5-carbaldehyde (17.2 g, 121.8 mmol in 200 mL THF) was introduced via cannula. Once the aldehyde was added the reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 3 hours, the reaction was quenched by pouring it into a saturated solution of aqueous NH4Cl. The aqueous portion was extracted with EtOAc in portions, 7*400 mL. The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to afford a brown oil. Chromatography on silica gel (10% acetone-DCM increasing to 50% acetone and increasing to 10% MeOH-DCM) provided the title compound as an amber solid.
I am very proud of our efforts over the past few months and hope to 1-Methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole help many people in the next few years.
