Participants

Reaction Steps

Under the conditions of Example 85, 6.25 g of 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-mercaptoimidazole is reacted in 150 ml of dimethylformamide in the presence of a pinch of powdered copper with 0.60 g of sodium hydride (80% in oil) and a diazonium salt solution prepared from 3.26 g of 3-trifluoromethylaniline (99%), 1.38 g of sodium nitrite, as well as 10 ml of 6N hydrochloric acid. Chromatography according to Example 85 yields 3.27 g of 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3-trifluoromethylphenylthio)imidazole as an amorphous foam.
