The reactions of 3-X-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazines (X = SMe, SPh, SO2Ph) with phenylacetonitrile anion in DMF were studied. In these reactions the ring transformation product 3-amino-4,6-diphenylpyridazine, the covalent addition product 3-X-5-(α-cyanobenzyl)-6-phenyl-2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine, and the ipso-substitution product 3-(1-cyano-1-phenylmethyl)-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazine were obtained. Analogous reactions carried out in DMA gave only the addition products in excellent yields as diastereomeric mixtures of the corresponding 2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazines.
