Reaction Steps

1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (800 mg, 8.3 mmol), 1-iodopropane (1.7 g, 10 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1.4 g) were added in DMF (30 mL) and the mixture was heated to 50° C. overnight. Then the mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure, and extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL×4). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated to give 1-propyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (1.1 g). LC-MS (ESI) m/z 139 (M+1)+.
