These common heterocyclic compound, 219814-29-6, name is 2,5-Dibromo-4-methylimidazole, 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. Recommanded Product: 2,5-Dibromo-4-methylimidazole
[Example 6]; While a mixture of 23.9 g (100.0 mmol) of 2,4-dibromo-5-methylimidazole, 29.4 g (300.0 mmol) of cyclohexanone, and 23.9 g (259.4 mmol) of toluene was stirred at ordinary temperature, 22.5 g (150.0 mmol) of sodium iodide was added thereto to prepare a reaction liquid. After the reaction liquid was stirred at 105C for 12 hours under a nitrogen stream, the liquid was stirred under ice cooling for 1 hour. When 2-bromo-4-methylimidazole in the reaction liquid was analyzed by means of HPLC, it was confirmed that the product was formed in an amount of 13.7 g (82.3 mmol, conversion: 85.3%). After the reaction liquid was concentrated under reduced pressure, the product was purified by silica gel chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane system) and, after volatile matter was further vaporized to solidify the product, crystals of 2-bromo-4-methylimidazole were obtained in an amount of 12.6 g (yield: 78.1%) as a residue. Incidentally, the NMR spectrum of the crystals was measured and was compared with the NMR spectrum of its specimen, whereby it was confirmed that the product is 2-bromo-4-methylimidazole.
The synthetic route of 2,5-Dibromo-4-methylimidazole has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
