Acyl and Sulfonyl Derivatives of 3,5-Diamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles

3-Acylamino-5-amino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles are formed regioselectively on acylating 3,5-diamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles with an equimolar amount of anhydrides, carboxylic acid chlorides, and sulfonyl chlorides. With an excess of anhydride and carboxylic acid chloride 3,5-diacylamino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles are formed. 3-Acylamino-5-amino-1-R-1,2,4-triazoles do not interact with sulfonyl chlorides. The higher reactivity of the 3-amino group towards acylating agents is determined by electronic and not steric factors. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1342–1350, September, 2005.

Facile synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazoles via copper-catalyzed domino nucleophilic substitution/oxidative cyclization using amidines or imidates as substrates

Two methods for the synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazoles, both domino reactions, are reported. The first procedure, the Cu(OTf)₂-catalyzed reaction between two amidines using NaHCO₃ as a base, 1,10-phenanthroline as an additive and K₃[Fe(CN)₆]/atmospheric oxygen as the oxidant, delivers 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazoles with yields up to 68%. The second procedure for the synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-triazoles with yields up to 64% rests on the Cu(OTf)₂-catalyzed reaction between two imidates and ammonium carbonate. This method features the formation of three bonds in a single synthetic step.

A method for obtaining 1-alkenyl-3,5-dichloro-1,2,4-triazoles by alkylation of 3,5-dichloro-1,2,4-triazole with chloro- and bromoalkenes was developed. The nitration of 1-alkenyl-3,5-dichloro-1,2,4-triazoles takes place at the double bond of the alkenyl radical; the concentration of the HNO₃ and the percentage of nitrogen oxides in it affect the character and yields of the products.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 933–936, July, 1987.     

Mass spectra of 1,2,4-triazoles—II: Alkyl 1,2,4-triazoles

The mass spectra of monomethyl 1,2,4-triazoles contain fragment ions produced by specific cleavage of the heterocyclic ring. A major fragmentation from many molecular ions involves the elimination of HCN, but loss of N₂ is either very small or completely absent. No N or H scrambling occurs within the triazole ring system, as evidenced by labelling studies. The loss of a hydrogen atom from the molecular ions of 3-alkyl-1,2,4-triazoles (alkyl ? C₂H₅) originates from hydrogens attached to the β carbon and nitrogen atoms.
