Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-bromopropiophenone (21.3 g, 0.1M), imidazole (20.4 g, 0.3M), triethylethylamine (30.3 g, 0.3M) and ethyl acetate (300 ml) was refluxed overnight, cooled to room temperature and treated with water. The organic phase was separated, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated to give 2-(imidazol-1-yl)propiophenone as a viscous oil (12.95 g,
