Imidazole → Clotrimazole

참여 물질

반응 단계

A mixture of benzene (20 ml), diphenyl phosphite (5.62 g, 24 mmole), imidazole (2.45 g, 36 mmole) and o-chlorophenyldiphenylmethanol (2.95 g, 10 mmole) obtained in Example 1 (A) was refluxed for 8 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with a 5% aqueous potassium hydroxide solution (20 ml). The benzene layer was separated, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated. Recrystallization of the crystalline residue from acetonitrile gave 2.51 g of 1-(o-chlorophenyldiphenylmethyl)imidazole. Yield, 73%. M.P., 142°-143° C.
