4-phenylurazole is a kind of laboratory chemicals used for the manufacturing of some substances. It can be used as the precursor to the Diels-Alder trapping agent, 4-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazoline-3, 5-Dione. Its derivative, azo dyes, has wide applications in dyes industry. In the presence of phosgene, terephthaloyl chloride and epichlorohydrin, it can be polymerized to yield insoluble polymer.

4-Phenylurazole undergoes oxidation in the presence of NO2-N2O4 to yield 4-phenyl-1,2,4-trizoline-3,5-dione. It undergoes acetylation reaction with excess acetyl chloride in N,N-dimethylacetamide solution. It polymerizes in the presence of phosgene, terephthaloyl chloride and epichlorohydrin to yield insoluble polymer. It is precursor to the Diels-Alder trapping agent, 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione. This urazole was recently demonstrated in the traceless, chemoselective labeling of peptides and proteins through electrochemical tyrosine-click (e-Y-CLICK) chemistry.
Crystallise 4-phenylurazole from water or 95% EtOH. Dissolve 35g in 80mL of boiling 95% EtOH and on cooling 90-95% is recovered with m 209-210o. It has IR with 1685 and 3120cm-1. [Cookson et al. Org max Synth 51 121 1971, Beilstein 26 I 64, 26 III/IV 540.]
