1,3-Diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one (6) reacts with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) or tetracyanoethylene oxide (TCNEO) to give the deep green 2-[1,3-diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-ylidene]propanedinitrile (11) in 17 and 15% yields, respectively. Nucleophiles such as amines, alkoxides, thiols and Grignard reagents all reacted with the 1,3-diphenylbenzotriazinone 6 regioselectively at C-6, while halogenating agents reacted exclusively at C-8. Furthermore, 8-iodo-1,3-diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one (32) undergoes palladium-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura and Stille coupling reactions to give 8-aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzotriazinones. By combining both the C-6 and C-8 chemistries 1,3,6,8-tetraphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one (42) and 1,3-diphenyl-6,8-di(thien-2-yl)-benzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one (43) can be prepared. All new compounds are fully characterized. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.
