Synthesis of 1,2,4-triazines

Recent Literature


A redox-efficient cyclodehydration of β-keto-N-acylsulfonamides with hydrazine salts provides 3,6-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazines. The mild reaction conditions tolerate a variety of sensitive functionalities. In addition, two approaches for synthesizing the requisite β-keto-N-acylsulfonamides are presented, which allow for the late stage incorporation of either the C3 or C6 substituent in a flexible manner.

An unexpected rhodium-catalyzed O-H insertion/rearrangement of N-acylhydrazones with N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles provides common intermediates for the synthesis of 1,2,4-triazines with different substitution patterns. Subsequent intramolecular cyclization reactions under mild conditions yield 3,6-disubstituted- and 3,5,6-trisubstituted-1,2,4-triazines depending on the conditions.
