Some common heterocyclic compound, 288-32-4, name is 1H-Imidazole, molecular formula is C3H4N2, traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route. name: 1H-Imidazole
General procedure: NH-containing heterocycle (1.4 mmol) and DMF (2.0 mL) were added to a mixture of CuCl (15.0 mol%) and ligand 1 (20.0 mol%) in DMF (2.0 mL), aryl iodide (1.0 mmol), NaOH (2.0 mmol). The mixture was vigorously stirred at 120 C for 14 h under a dry nitrogen atmosphere. After completion of the reaction (as monitored by TLC), H2O was added and the organic layer was extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. The solution was filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography. The purity of the compounds was checked by 1H NMR and yields are based on aryl iodide. All the products are known and the spectroscopic data (FT-IR and NMR) and melting points were consistent with those reported in the literature.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 288-32-4, its application will become more common.
