Procedure

To 13.6 gm (0.2 mole) of imidazole (Aldrich Chemical Co., Milwaukee, Wis. 99%) and 20.2 gm of triethylamine (Aldrich, 99%) in 100 ml dry acetone (Fisher Scientific Co., Pittsburgh, Pa.) in a magnetically stirred 250 ml round bottom flask under dry nitrogen was added 21.5 gm (0.2 mole) dimethylcarbamyl chloride (Aldrich, 99%) dropwise over a 20 min. period from a side-arm pressure equalizing addition funnel. A white precipitate formed during the addition under conditions of mild exothermicity. The addition funnel was replaced with a reflux condensor and the reaction refluxed for a further one hour. After cooling to room temperature, the precipitate was isolated by Buchner filtration onto Wattman #1 paper, rinsed on the filter with acetone, and discarded. The combined flitrate and rinse acetone solution was divided into two equal parts, each containing 0.1 mole of 1-dimethylcarbamoylimidazole. To one of these parts was added 22.1 gm (0.1 mole) of 1-bromodecane (Aldrich 98%) and the solution refluxed for seven hours under dry nitrogen. The acetone was evaporated at water aspirator vacuum in a rotoevaporator to the point where two layers formed. The upper layer contained largely unreacted bromodecane and :he lower yielded 12 gm (0.043 mole for a 21.4% theorical yield) of the imidazolium salt as a waxy solid upon cooling to 5 C. The purity and identity of this product was confirmed by proton and carbon NMR in deuterium oxide solution.
