Methyl iodide → 3-Methyl-1-[methyl(propan-2-yl)carbamoyl]-1H-imidazol-3-ium iodide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a 50 mL round-bottomed flask was added N-isopropyl-N-methyl-1H-imidazole-1-carboxamide (0.550 g, 3.29 mmol), acetonitrile (29 mL, 3.29 mmol), iodomethane (0.817 mL, 13.16 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was removed under vacuum to afford 1-(isopropyl(methyl)carbamoyl)3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium iodide.
