Participants

Reaction Steps

Imidazolyl sodium (3.58 g) is added to a stirred solution of 3-chloroacetyl-2-(o-methoxyphenoxy)methylthiazolidine (5.8 g) in DMSO (35 ml). After 1 hour the mixture is poured in ice and water (200 ml) and the separated oil is extracted with EtOAc (3×30). The organic phases are collected, washed with water, dried on Na2SO4. After evaporation, the crude residue is purified by filtration on a short column of SiO2 using EtOAc and EtOAc/MeOH 85:15 as the eluent to give 3-(imidazol-1-yl)acetyl-2-(o-methoxyphenoxy)methyl-thiazolidine (5.1 g) as a colourless oil.
