The reaction of 1,2,3-benzotriazines with Grignard reagents
Abstract
Attack of alkyl Grignard reagents on 4-substituted 1,2,3-benzotriazines occurs at N-2; ethylmagnesium iodide attacks at N-2 of 3-methyl-1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one whereas methylmagnesium iodide adds at C-4 to give, after dehydration, 3,4-dihydro-4-methylene-3-methyl-1,2,3-benzotriazine.
