Solid-phase synthesis of [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine and tetrazolo[5,1-a]phthalazine derivatives

A general method is reported for the solid-phase synthesis of [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine and tetrazolo[5,1-a]phthalazine derivatives based on the cyclization of resin-bound chlorophthalazines 4 with various hydrazides or sodium azide. The resin-bound chlorophthalazines 4, produced by nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of dichlorophthalazine with the secondary amine resins 2, served as the key intermediate for subsequent triazolophthalazine resins 6 and tetrazolophthalazine resins 8, which provided the desired products 7 and 9 in good yields and purities.
