An environmentally friendly method was established for the N-methylation of the 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles with a green reagent: DMC. DABCO was the optimal catalyst, and hazardous chemicals were avoided in this protocol. A plausible catalytic mechanism is proposed, which consists of a DABCO-activated process and a thermally induced rearrangement of tetrazole carbamates.
