Application of 50995-95-4,Some common heterocyclic compound, 50995-95-4, name is 2-Propylimidazole, molecular formula is C6H10N2, 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.
General procedure: A vessel with a magnetic stirrer bar was charged with imidazole derivative (0.5 mmol), CuI (10 mg, 0.05 mmol), Cs2CO3 (0.33 g, 1 mmol), PPh3 (26 mg, 0.1 mmol) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) (0.2 g, 0.6 mmol) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction vessel was evacuated and backfilled with nitrogen three times. In a separate flask, a solution of dry dioxane (2 mL) containing the 1,1-dihalo-1-alkenes (1 mmol) was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen gas three times. The dioxane solution was then added to the reaction flask via a syringe and the reaction mixture heated to 100 C for 30 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, quenched with 5 mL of a saturated NH4Cl solution, and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 10 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography with ethyl acetate (EA) and petroleum ether (Pet) as the eluent to afford the corresponding products:
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-Propylimidazole, its application will become more common.
