Reference of 693-98-1,Some common heterocyclic compound, 693-98-1, name is 2-Methyl-1H-imidazole, molecular formula is C4H6N2, 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: Aryl halide (1.0mmol), amine (1.5-2.0mmol), PNP-SSS (0.6mol%; 0.023g), K2CO3 (2mmol), and DMF (3.0mL) was placed in a 25mL flask equipped with a magnetic stirring bar and heated at 120C under nitrogen gas. The reaction was then monitored by TLC until the consumption of aryl halide was detected. After completion of the reaction 5mL of water and 5mL of ethyl acetate were added to the reaction mixture. The organic solution was extracted and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. After removing of organic solvent the crude product was obtained. For further purification the chromatography technique was used.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 2-Methyl-1H-imidazole, its application will become more common.
