Participants

Reaction Steps

5.13 g of 2-ethylthio-1-methylimidazole-5-carbaldehyde was dissolved in 30 ml of ethanol, and 2.00 g of malononitrile was then added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain 2.51 g of [(2-ethylthio-1-methylimidazol-3-yl)methylidene]malononitrile.
