Abstract

5, 7-Dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo [4, 3-α] pyrimidine is isomerized in the presence of various nucleophilic agents to 5, 7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazole [1, 5-α] pyrimidine via a rearrangement of the Dimroth type. Under the influence of hydrazine hydrate, both triazolopyrimidines are converted to a mixture of 3, 5-dimethylpyrazole and 3-amino-1, 2, 4-triazole.
