Reaction Steps

The alkylation of (II) by ethyl iodide is performed in boiling acetone with potassium carbonate as basic agent. 2-Ethyl-2-(1-trityl-1H-imidazole-4-yl)indan-1,3-dione (III) is formed in over 67% yield and easily isolated from the acetone solution by concentrating it and diluting with water. A high purity (III) is obtained after crystallization from methanol or ethanol.
