Abstract
An efficient synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-d]tetrazole derivatives is achieved via one-pot Knoevenagel condensation, nucleophilic substitution, intramolecular and intermolecular cyclization reactions of α-bromoacetophenones, malononitrile, and sodium azide in EtOH as solvent in the presence of K2CO3. The products are formed in moderate yields.
