Electric Literature of 22884-10-2, Each compound has different characteristics, and only by selecting the characteristics of the compound suitable for a specific situation can the compound be applied on a large scale. 22884-10-2, name is 2-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)acetic acid, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows.
3.8 mmol (1 equiv) of the respective carboxylic acid (658 mg 3-pyridylacetic acid hydrochloride for 1, 478 mg imidazol-1-yl-acetic acid for 2, 339 mg beta-alanine for 3, 392 mg gamma-aminobutyric acid for 4, 499 mg 6-aminohexanoic acid for 5) were added to 11.4 mmol (3 equiv) H3PO3 in a dry flask. 1.6 mL of distilled sulfolane was added and the contents were heated briefly to dissolve the solids. The solution was cooled down to approximately 25-35 C, and 11.4 mmol (3 equiv) of PCl3 were immediately added. The flask was then placed in a Milestone Ethos Synth Microwave Synthesis Labstation and fitted with a condenser through which cold water was passed. The following microwave programs were applied:For synthesis of 1: 3 min ramp to 65 C, followed by 15 s at 65 C. For synthesis of 2: 3 min ramp to 65 C, followed by 45 s at 65 C.For synthesis of 3: 3 min ramp to 65 C, followed by 15 s at 65 C.For synthesis of 4: 3 min ramp to 65 C, followed by 4 min at 65 C.For synthesis of 5: 3 min ramp to 65 C, followed by 4 min at 65 C.The power was automatically adjusted to reach and maintain the temperature designated by the program, which is determined by a built-in IR sensor in the microwave reactor. For the synthesis of intermediates 1 and 2, the power fluctuated between 0 and a max of 300-400 W, while for 3, 4, and 5, the max power was typically 200-300 W.The solid mixture after microwave irradiation consists of intermediate phosphorus compound together with a yellow-orange unwanted side product which can be removed by centrifugation before or after hydrolysis. The reaction mixture was quenched with 6 mL of H2O, yielding a clear solution that was then transferred to a 50 mL sealed quartz reaction vessel and was hydrolyzed to the bisphosphonic acid in the microwave reactor with a 6 min ramp to 150 C, followed by 4 min at 150 C. The power applied fluctuated between 0 and a max of 450-500 W. The pH of the hydrolysis mixtures for acids 1, 3, 4, and 5 was adjusted15 with NaOH and the mixture then aged at 0-5 C until crystallization of the products was complete. Acids 4 and 5 were precipitated as monosodium salts by stirring with 2-5 mL ethanol for 1-2 h at room temperature. Acid 2 was precipitated by the addition of 9 mL acetone to the acidic hydrolysis mixture and stirring for 3-4 h at room temperature. The white crystalline products were then filtered and washed with cold H2O and acetone or ethanol and then dried under vacuum at 45 C to constant weight.15 with NaOH and the mixture then aged at 0-5 C until crystallization of the products was complete.
