Resumo

The reaction of various 1-pivaloyl-1H-tetrazoles with excess lithium and a catalytic amount of naphthalene (20 mol%) led, after treatment with methanol, to the corresponding free tetrazoles through reductive C–N bond cleavage. This methodology represents a reasonable alternative to other nonreductive protocols.

This work was financially supported by the A.N.D.R.S. (Agence Nationale pour le Développement de la Recherche en Santé) (Algérie) and the Department of Organic Chemistry of the University of Alicante (Spain). We are very grateful to the Spanish Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y de Cooperación for a cooperation grant (AP/039112/11).
