An efficient and mild method for the synthesis of tetrazolo-fused-pyridine derivatives

Abstract

An efficient and mild method has been established for the synthesis of tetrazolo-fused-pyridine derivatives from the straightforwardly obtainable starting materials such as pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline-N-oxides, sodium azide, triflic anhydride as activator, and acetonitrile as solvent at 0 ̊C to room temperature in one pot reaction. ©AUTHOR(S)
