Abstract
A simple, efficient, and mild method has been developed for the synthesis of substituted 1,2,4-triazoles from hydrazines and formamide under microwave irradiation. The reaction proceeds smoothly in the absence of a catalyst and shows excellent functional-group tolerance.

- 20 Experimental Procedure for the Synthesis of 3a To a dried microwave tube was added phenylhydrazine (108 mg, 1 mmol) and formamide (0.82 mL, 20 mmol). The tube was sealed with a plastic microwave septum and then placed into the microwave cavity and irradiated at 160 °C, 250 psi, and 230 W for 10 min. After completion of reaction (TLC), the mixture was cooled to r.t.; distilled H2O (10 mL) was added, and the mixture extracted with EtOAc (3 × 10 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography using a mixture of n-hexane and EtOAc as eluent.
