Participants

Reaction Steps

3.3 Grams of 1-(2-methylphenyl)-2-[3-(3-dimethoxymethyl-4-nitrophenoxy)propylsulfinyl]imidazole was added to 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 10 ml of 4 N hydrochloric acid. The mixture was stirred overnight and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and an aqueous solution saturated with sodium chloride, dried with magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to obtain 2.8 g of 1-(2-methylphenyl)-2-[3-(3-formyl-4-nitrophenoxy)propylsulfinyl]imidazole as a light yellow oil.
