Procedure

DMF, 100 mL, was stirred, and 13.2 grams (0.068 mole) of 5-iodoimidazole (vi) was added, followed by 18.9 grams (0.068 mole) of triphenylmethyl chloride, and 3.3 grams (0.033 mole) of triethylamine. Upon completion of addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours. After this time, the reaction mixture was poured into crushed ice where it stirred until the ice melted. The resultant solid was then collected by filtration and triturated with diethyl ether. A solid was collected by filtration and washed with diethyl ether, yielding the subject compound. The diethyl ether filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to a residue, and re-triturated with diethyl ether, yielding additional subject compound. The total yield of subject compound was about 5.0 grams. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
