Ethyl 7-Acetyl-8a-methyl-3-(1-phenyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1,4,4a,5,6,8a-hexahydro-7H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyridazine-1-carboxylate

The Diels–Alder reaction of ethyl 3-(1-phenyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl-1,2-diaza-1,3-butadiene-1-carboxylate with 2-acetyl-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran (methyl vinyl ketone dimer) regioselectively afforded the corresponding 3-(tetrazol-5-yl)-hexahydro-7H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyridazine in quantitative yield. An X-ray crystal structure of this cycloadduct is reported.
