Benzoyl isocyanate reacts with ethyl diazoacetate, in refluxing xylene, to give ethyl 1-benzoyl-5-hydroxy-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylate<br />

in 60% yield (Scheme 33). [71]<br />

1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole (77, R 1 = 4-ClC 6H 4); Typical Procedure for the Reaction<br />

of Isocyanates with [Diazo(trimethylsilyl)methyl]lithium: [70]<br />

To 2 M TMSCHN 2 in hexane (0.6 mL, 1.2 mmol) in Et 2O (10 mL) was added dropwise, 15%<br />

BuLi in hexane (0.76 mL, 1.2 mmol) at 08C under argon. The mixture was stirred at this<br />

temperature for 20 min. A soln of 4-chlorophenyl isocyanate (154 mg, 1 mmol) in Et 2O<br />

(3 mL) was then added dropwise at 0 8C. The mixture was stirred at 0 8C for 2 h and ice water<br />

was then added. The aqueous layer was separated and the organic phase was extracted<br />

with H 2O. The combined aqueous layer was acidified with 2 M HCl. The resulting white<br />

precipitates were collected by filtration, dried in vacuo, and purified by column chromatography<br />

(silica gel) to give 77 (R 1 = 4-ClC 6H 4); yield: 162 mg (83%).<br />

From Diazoalkanes and Isothiocyanates<br />

Treatment of isothiocyanates with [diazo(trimethylsilyl)methyl]lithium (48) in tetrahydrofuran,<br />

followed by quenching with alkyl halides, gives 1-substituted 5-(alkylsulfanyl)-<br />

4-(trimethylsilyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazoles 78 in excellent yields (Scheme 34). [72] A dramatic solvent<br />

effect is observed in this reaction: changing tetrahydrofuran for diethyl ether leads<br />

to the exclusive formation of 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amines in good yields. [73] This is in contrast<br />

to the results observed with isocyanates (Scheme 32). Removal of the trimethylsilyl<br />

group from 78 is readily carried out with 10% aqueous potassium hydroxide in boiling<br />

methanol to give triazoles 79 in almost quantitative yields. [72]<br />
