Brief introduction of 2-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)acetonitrile

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.

98873-55-3, Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 98873-55-3, name is 2-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)acetonitrile, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below.

EXAMPLE 7 Synthesis of 2-(1-imidazolyl)-2-[4 (2-chlorophenyl)1,3-dithiolan-2-ylidene]acetonitrile (Compound Nos. 34 and 35) To a mixed solution of 2.2 g (0.02 mole) of 1cyanomethylimidazole, 1.60 g (0.02 mole) of carbon disulfide and 10 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide wa added 3.0 g (0.05 mole) of potassium hydroxide powder, and the reaction was carried out with stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, 6.0 g (0.02 mole) of 2′-chloro-(1,2-dibromoethyl)benzene was added dropwise with stirring, and the resulting solution was subjected to reaction for another 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, 20 ml of water was added to the reaction solution, after which the resulting mixture was subjected to extraction with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer was washed with water and dried. The solvent was distilled off and the residue was purified by silia gel chromatography to obtain 0.3 g of the Z isomer and 1.3 g of the E isomer individually in the form of light-yellow crystals. The Z isomer: melting point 119.4 C., yield 5%. The E isomer: melting point 141.5 C., yield 20%.

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
