Reaction Steps

A mixture of 27.8 g. of N-(4-bromo-2-butynyl)phthalimide, 9.0 g. of sodium imidazole and 150 ml. of dimethylformamide is heated at 80° C. for 3 hours and then concentrated to remove the solvent. The residue is extracted with 500 ml. of hot toluene and the toluene layer is concentrated to a viscous oil which is further purified by HPLC, developed with ethyl acetate to obtain 2-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-2-butynyl)]-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione, m.p. 139°-141° C.
