4-Methoxy-I ,2,3-benzotriazine, like the 4-methyl and 4-phenyl compounds, forms the 2-oxide on Noxidation; this is hydrolysed to the acidic 3,4-dihydr0-4-0~0-1,2,3-benzotriazine 2-oxide, which is Nmethylated by diazomethane at the 3-position. The 4-methoxy 2-oxide was converted into 4-amino-and 4-hydrazi no-der ivatives. 5 -Amino-3methyl isoxazole-2 -carbon itrile forms 3,4-d i hydro-5-methyl -4oxoisoxazolo[5,4-d] -1,2,3-triazine 2-oxide on reaction with nitric and sulphuric acids. The 15N n.m.r. spectra of some 1,2,3-benzotriazines and their N-oxides are reported.
