The reaction of 2-[(trimethylsilyl)methyl]-2 H -tetrazoles with various alkyl halides and carbonates using n -butyllithium or lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) gave 2-[1-(trimethylsilyl)alkyl]-2 H -tetrazoles and (2 H -tetrazol-2-yl)acetates as useful synthons of modified tetrazoles.
C–H/N–H cross-coupling has become a key technology for the selective conjugation of azole drugmolecules. However, the development of new synthetic models and green chemical methods is imperative to enhance the construction of multi-functional compounds and compounds with unique functional groups. We herein reported an electrochemical synthesis of α-tetrazolyl ketones with excellent yields and broad
