Participants

Reaction Steps

Nitric acid (70%; d=1.42) is added dropwise to a stirred solution of 2.0g. of 1-[2-(2,4-dichlorophenylthio)-2-methyl-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-n-butyl]imidazole in 200 ml. of anhydrous ether until precipitation is complete. The product is filtered off, washed with ether, air dried, and recrystallized from acetone/ethyl acetate to yield 1-[2-(2,4-dichlorophenylthio)-2-methyl-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-n-butyl]imidazole nitrate, m.p. 126.5°-128° C.
