This suggests that cycloadditions across C-5/N-2 of 1, 2, 4-triazine (4) may, in fact, represent a two-step nucleophilic addition-cyclization involving a discrete dipolar intermediate and that cycloadditions across C-3/C-6 of the 1, 2, 4-triazine nucleus may not proceed via a discrete dipolar intermediate resulting from initial, nucleophilic attack at C-3.

All other solvents and reagents were used as received from commercial sources. Pressure reactions, 6.2 kbar, were conducted in a pressure generator available from Leco Corp.30cin glass-plug-sealed, heat-shrinkable Teflon tubing, (b) Meyers, A. I.; Slade, J.; Smith, R.
