Die Acylierung von 5-Amino-1 H-1, 2, 4-triazolen. Eine 13C-NMR.-Studie

The Acylation of 5-Amino-1 H-1,2,4-triazoles. A ¹³C-NMR. Study The acylation of 3-substituted-5-amino-1 H-1,2,4-triazoles (1) with methyl chloroformate or dimethylcarbamoyl chloride yielded mainly 1-acyl-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles ( 2 and 3 ). Acylation of 3-methyl-, 3-methoxy- and 3-methylthio-5-amino-1 H-1,2,4-triazole ( 1b , 1c and 1d ) with methyl chloroformate gave up to 10% of the 1-acyl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazoles. For the unsubstituted 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole (1a) , a (1:1)-mixture of the 3- and 5-isomers 2a and 4 was obtained in dioxane in the presence of triethylamine. No 4-acylated product was detected in contrast to earlier reports. The structures of the reaction products were determined with the aid of proton coupled ¹³C-NMR. spectra using the corresponding N-methyl-1,2,4-triazoles as reference compounds.
