Nitroazines. 19. Prototropic tautomerism in 6-nitro-7-oxo-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

Prototropic reactions of 6-nitro-7-oxo-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo5,1-c]1,2,4]triazines is tautomeric as established from photoionization results. The ratios of the tautomers in the gas phase and in solution have been determined by mass and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.For Communication 18 see 1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1555–1559, November, 1992.
