5-Phenyltetrazole(CAT: M082676) is a heterocyclic aromatic compound consisting of a tetrazole ring substituted with a phenyl group at the 5-position. Known for its strong acidity and bioisosteric relationship to carboxylic acids, 5-phenyltetrazole is widely used in medicinal chemistry as a key pharmacophore in angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and other therapeutic agents. It also serves as a versatile intermediate in the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), ligands, and functional materials. The tetrazole ring offers stability and hydrogen bonding potential, making it valuable in drug design and coordination chemistry.
