Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The intramolecular azo-coupling of diazotized N-o-aminophenyl-imidazoles forms derivatives of the new heterocyclic system of imidazo[5, 1-c]benzo-1, 2,4-triazine or, if position 5 of the imidazole ring is substituted, that of imidazo[1, 2-c]benzo-1,2,4-triazine. This reaction is the first case of the azo-coupling of an imidazole ring in the nonaniontc form. The spectral characteristics and basicities of the compounds obtained have been studied. Quantum-mechanical calculations by the MOH method have been performed.
