The title compound, C(7)H(13)N(5), a tetrazole analogue of betaines, exists as a zwitterion, with the H atom of the tetrazole ring being transferred to the piperidine ring N atom. The tetrazole ring symmetry is close to C(2v), which suggests strong charge delocalization in the N-C-N fragment of the ring. There are classical hydrogen bonds in the structure which are responsible for the formation...

The metal-organic framework [Cd15(5MT)18(OH)4(SO4)4] (5-MT = 5-methyl-1H-tetrazole) with an unprecedented Cd(3)(micro3-OH)(micro3-SO4) core and two kinds of tetrazole coordination modes was formed by self-assembly and in situ synthesis of the 5-MT tetrazole ligand; the structure exhibits an unusual 3(9) x 4(12) x 5(15) topological network and shows reversible shrinkage and expansion in a crysta...

A straightforward and reliable method for the regioselective synthesis of steroidal 1,4-disubstituted triazoles and 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles via copper(I)-catalyzed cycloadditions is reported. Heterocycle moieties were efficiently introduced onto the starting azide compound 3β-acetoxy-16β-azidomethylandrost-5-en-17β-ol through use of the "click" chemistry approach. The antiproliferative act...

An efficient method for the synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles through the reaction of nitriles with sodium azide using titanium oxide–supported boric acid (TiO2-H3BO3) catalyst was reported. The reactions were carried out at 120 °C and provided the corresponding tetrazoles in good to excellent yields. This method displayed significant advantages ...

We have isolated the stable as well as the metastable tautomers of 1-deazapurine in the solid state by exploiting principles of supramolecular selectivity in the context of cocrystal design.

An efficient synthesis of the angiotensin-II inhibitor valsartan (Diovan®) is presented. Directed ortho-metalation of 5-phenyl-1-trityl-1H-tetrazole (6) and its Negishi coupling with aryl bromide 5 are the key steps of the synthesis. This method overcomes many of the drawbacks associated with previously reported syntheses.

The synthesis and reactivity of tetrazol-5-yl-phosphorus ylides towards N-halosuccinimide/TMSN₃ reagent systems was explored, opening the way to new haloazidoalkenes bearing a tetrazol-5-yl substituent. These compounds were obtained as single isomers, except in one case. X-ray crystal structures were determined for three derivatives, establishing that the non-classical Wittig reaction leads to ...
