Conditions: temp:80.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
Procedure: A suspension of 2,5-diflurobenzonitrile (4.5 g, 32.35 mmol) and 1,2,4-triazole sodium salt (3.6 g, 40 mmol) in dimethylformamide (40 mL) was heated at 80° C. for 15 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled, diluted with CH2Cl2 (200 mL), washed with water (3×30 mL) and brine (30 mL), then dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to give a white solid which was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2) using 1:1 to 3:1 ethyl acetate/Hexanes to afford the title compound (2.98 g, 49% yield) as a white powder. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 8.70 (1H, s), 8.18 (1H, s), 7.76 (1H, dd, J=9.0, 4.8 Hz), 7.55 (1H, dd, J=7.3, 2.8 Hz), 7.51–7.47 (1H, m). LCMS (M+H) calcd for C9H6FN4: 189.17; found: 189.10.
