Synthetic Route of 1003-21-0,Some common heterocyclic compound, 1003-21-0, name is 5-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-imidazole, molecular formula is C4H5BrN2, 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.

Ethyl magnesium bromide (3.0 M in diethyl ether, 21.5 mL, 64.4 mmol) was added via syringe over a few minutes to a clear colorless solution of 5-bromo-1-methyl-1H-imidazole (10.4 g, 64.4 mmol) in THF (100 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere in an ice bath. A white precipitate formed during the addition. The mixture was removed from the ice bath and was stirred for 20 minutes, then was again cooled in an ice bath before addition of 4-chloro-N-methoxy-N-methylbenzamide (10.7 g, 53.6 mmol, Intermediate 22: step a). The resulting white suspension was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction was quenched by addition of saturated aqueous NH4Cl and diluted with water. The mixture was partially concentrated to remove THF and was diluted with DCM. The mixture was acidified to pH 1 with 1 N aqueous HCl, then neutralized with saturated aqueous NaHCO3. The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was further extracted with DCM. The organic extracts were washed with water, then were dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated, affording a white solid. The crude product was triturated with a mixture of EtOAc:heptanes (1:1, 150 mL). The precipitated solid was collected by vacuum filtration, washing with heptanes, to afford the title compound.

The synthetic route of 1003-21-0 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
