<p>A process for preparing tryptamine derivatives and related compounds having a 1,2,4-triazol-1-yl moiety within the molecule comprises reacting 4-amino-1,2,4-triazol with a nitrobenzene derivative containing a readily displaceable group; deaminating the aminotriazolium salt thereby obtained by treatment with nitrous acid followed by neutralisation; reducing the triazolyl-nitrobenzene derivative thereby obtained by transfer hydrogenation; treating the triazolyl-aniline derivative thereby obtained with nitrous acid and then with an alkali metal sulphate, followed by acidification; and subsequently reacting the triazolyl-hydrazine derivative thereby obtained in situ with a suitable carbonyl compound, to obtain the required triazolyl-indole derivative.</p> |
