Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Ethyl 2-mercapto-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate (1.00 g), 1-fluoro-4-nitrobenzene (2.05 g) and anhydrous potassium carbonate (4.00 g) were mixed in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 4 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled, water was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Diisopropyl ether was added to the residue and the resulting crystals were collected by filtration to give the title compound as pale-yellow crystals (yield 2.06 g, 86%).
