These common heterocyclic compound, 177760-04-2, name is Ethyl 2-amino-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate, its 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. Formula: C7H11N3O2
To a solution of sodium nitrite (18.3 g, 266 mmol) in water (55 mL)cooled around 5 C in an ice-salt bath, was added dropwise asolution of the amino ester 4 (6.42 g, 38.0 mmol) in acetic acid (42 mL). The temperature was allowed to rise gradually to rt and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. The reaction mixturewas extracted with dichloromethane (3 50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (7/3,v/v) as eluent. After concentration under vacuum, the residue was washed with water (2 50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to yield nitro ester 5 as yellow crystals (5.67 g, 28.5 mmol). Yield 75%; mp 56-58 C (Lit. 56-58 C [40] and 65-66 C [37]); Rf 0.40(SiO2, cyclohexane/ethyl acetate, 7/3, v/v); IR (ATR) n cm1 1723,1552, 1486, 1519, 1364, 1233, 767; 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) delta 7.70(s, 1H, CHAr), 4.39 (q, 2H, 3J 7.1 Hz, OCH2CH3), 4.31 (s, 3H, NCH3),1.39 (t, 3H, 3J 7.1 Hz, OCH2CH3); 13C NMR (DMSO-d6, 126 MHz) delta 158.71 (CO), 147.61 (CArNO2), 133.70 (CHAr), 126.07 (CArCO), 61.34(OCH2), 35.14 (NCH3), 13.91 (CH2CH3).
The synthetic route of Ethyl 2-amino-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
