5-Benzyloxy-2-methylthio-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazolo-
[5,1-b]quinazoline (9/6).
This compound was prepared analogously to derivatives 3
by benzylation of a solution of 250 mg (0.00054 mole) of
2-methylthio-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopenta[e]-1,2,4-triazolo-
[1,5-a]pyrimidin-8(9H)-one tetrabutylammonium salt 14e
To a mixture of 0.144 g (0.006 mole) of sodium hydride (240 mg
of 60% suspension Fluka washed with petroleum ether) and 15 ml
of absolute ether 0.65 g (0.006 mole) of freshly distilled benzyl-
alcohol was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature
until the evolution of hydrogen ceased, at which time 1.27 g
(0.005 mole) of 5-chloro-2-methylthio-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1,2,4-
triazolo[5,1-b]quinazoline (19) [22] was added to the reaction
