Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Potassium carbonate (1.16 g) and cesium fluoride (196 mg) were added to a DMF solution (20 ml) of 2-chloro-4-nitro-1H-imidazole (953 mg) and 4-nitrobenzene sulfonic acid 2-(2-methyloxiranyl)ethyl ester (1.856 g), and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. overnight. Thereafter the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. Water was added to the reaction solution, and the reaction mixture was then extracted repeatedly with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution, and then dried over sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol=20:1) to afford the title compound as a yellow oil (1.1 g).
