Reference of 60-56-0, In the next few decades, the world population will flourish. As the population grows rapidly and people all over the world use more and more resources, all industries must consider their environmental impact. 60-56-0, name is 1-Methyl-1H-imidazole-2(3H)-thione belongs to imidazoles-derivatives compound, it is a common compound, a new synthetic route is introduced below.
2-Mercapto-l-methylimidazol (40.8 mg, 0.35 mmol) was neat to a solution of l-bromo-3- (4-chloro-phenyl)-3-methyl-butan-2-one (98.5 mg, 0.35 mmol) in CH3CN (5 mL) at room temperature, then Et3N (0.098 mL, 0.70 mmol) was added neat to the mixture and the reaction was stirred overnight. Thiol residues were trapped by addition of a small spatula of resin 2-chlorotrityl chloride in 30 min then the mixture was filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The crude mixture was purified by flash chromatography (hexane/EtOAc gradient 0-40%) to give the expected compound (108.5 mg, 100%) as brown solid. TLC single spot at R/ 0.47 (MeOH/DCM 1:9); Mp = [43.7-47.3 0C]; 1H NMR (270 MHz, CDCl3): delta 1.46 (s, 6H), 3.59 (s, 3H), 3.86 (s, 2H), 6.84 (d, J = 1.1 Hz, IH), 6.94 (d, J = 1.4 Hz, IH), 7.07-7.15 (m, 2H), 7.23-7.30 (m, 2H); Accurate Mass: calculated (MVH) 309.0823; found 309.0811; HPLC tr = 2.06 min (100%) in 10% water-acetonitrile.
In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, 1-Methyl-1H-imidazole-2(3H)-thione, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
