Application

4-Phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) can be used as an efficient and selective reagent for the oxidation of thiols to disulfides.
It can also be used:       
  • As a dehydrogenating agent to synthesize annulated dihydropyridazines by inverse [4+2] cycloaddition reaction between cyclic alkenes and 1,2,4,5-tetrazines.       
  • As a dienophile to synthesize cycloaddition products by fast hetero-Diels−Alder reactions.       
  • As an efficient oxidizing agent for the synthesis of pyridine derivatives from 1,4-dihydropyridines.
  • In the synthesis of urazoles via [3+2] cycloaddition with allylsilanes.

The utility of Diels-Alder derivatization with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) for liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry of conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) was examined. PTAD rapidly reacted with the CLAs, and the resulting derivatives were highly responsive in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

The 5-aza-6-deoxy analogue of castanospermine (+/-)-5a and its 1-epimer (+/-)-5b was synthesized. The synthesis started from the known compound 5-benzyloxy-7-hydroxyhepta-1,3-diene, which was protected and subjected to Diels-Alder reaction with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione to give two epimeric adducts. One of these was transformed
