• from the resulting azido group and a subsequent 1,2-migration of the acylimido group from carbon to nitrogen to give the same nitrilimine intermediate was ruled out by Herbst via 15N labeling studies [44]. The degradative acylation of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles with acyl halides is in fact an elegant
