Application of 616-47-7, In the next few decades, the world population will flourish. As the population grows rapidly and people all over the world use more and more resources, all industries must consider their environmental impact. 616-47-7, name is 1-Methyl-1H-imidazole belongs to imidazoles-derivatives compound, it is a common compound, a new synthetic route is introduced below.
To a solution of 1-methyl-1H-imidazole (200 g, 2.44 mol) in anhydrous THF (2 L) was added dropwise n-BuLi (2.5M, 1.07 L, 2.68 mol) at -78 C with stirring over 2 h. Then perchloroethane (800 g, 0.845 mol) in dry THF (1L) was added dropwise to above solution over 1h at the same temperature. After the starting material was consumed, the mixture was poured into saturated ammonium hydrochloride, extracted with ethyl acetate (800 mL x 3), washed with brine, the organic phase was dried and concentrated to give crude product which was purified by column chromatography on silca gel (PE/ EtOAc = 20:1~5:1) to give the title compound (170 g, 60%) as a yellow oil.
The synthetic route of 1-Methyl-1H-imidazole has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
