    Abstract

    Ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in methanol-water gave a new N-dearylation of a series of substituted 1-(p-methoxyphenyl) pyrazoles and a 2-(p-methoxyphenyl)tetrazole producing p-benzoquinone and the parent azole in a mole for mole ratio. Application of this reaction to 1-(p-methoxyphenyl) pentazole at -40 degrees C produced p-benzoquinone. 15N NMR spectra suggest that pentazole, HN5, was also produced and held in solution as N5- with Zn2+ ion. The 15N signal from N5- was -10.0 +/- 2.0 ppm in agreement with calculated values.
