Wang, Wenxing; Zhang, Shuo; Shi, Guang; Chen, Zhiwei published the artcile< Electrochemical synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles from enamines and benzylamines>, Related Products of 3959-07-7, the main research area is imidazole preparation green chem; enamine benzylamine electrochem amination.
An electrochem. method for synthesizing 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles I (R = Me, Et, Ph, i-Pr; R1 = n-Bu, Bn, cyclohexyl, 4-chlorophenyl, naphthalen-1-yl, etc.; R2 = Me, OMe, OEt, Ot-Bu; R3 = Ph, 2,3-dichlorophenyl, thiophen-2-yl, etc.) was developed under undivided electrolytic conditions. This synthesis was specifically realized based on electrochem. C(sp3)-H amination via enamines (Z)-RC(NHR1)=C(O)R2 and amines R3NH2. Readily available starting materials were used, avoiding the use of both transition metals and oxidants. The practicability of the method lies in its broad substrate adaptability and in its ability to provide a simple green pathway for synthesizing GABAA receptor analogs I (R = Me; R1 = 2,4-dichlorophenyl; R2 = OEt; R3 = 4-bromophenyl).
Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry published new progress about Amination. 3959-07-7 belongs to class bromides-buliding-blocks, and the molecular formula is C7H8BrN, Related Products of 3959-07-7.
