Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7.3 g of 4-methylimidazol-2-one and 10.8 g of aluminum chloride in 150 ml of nitrobenzene is added 12.0 g of 2-thienoyl chloride. The mixture is stirred at 60° C. for 3 hours, cooled and poured over ice water. The organic portion is extracted into ethyl acetate, dried and the organic solvent evaporated to give the title compound. M.P. 212°-215° C.
