Polynuclear nonfused tetrazole-, 1,3,4-oxadiazole-, and 1,2,3-triazole-containing systems

Article abstract of DOI:10.1134/S1070428006060170

Polynuclear nonfused blocks containing 1,2,3-triazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, and tetrazole rings were synthesized by reaction of C-substituted tetrazoles with carboxylic acid chlorides, as well as by cycloaddition of 2-azidomethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles at the triple bond of acetylenic compounds. Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2006.
