Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-trityl-1H-imidazole-4-carbaldehyde (25.0 g, 73.9 mmol), TosMIC (14.42 g, 73.9 mmol) and K2CO3 (10.21 g, 73.9 mmol) in MeOH (750 mL) was heated to reflux for 3 h. The mixture was then allowed to cool to RT, diluted with H2O, and extracted with AcOEt. The combined org. layers were then washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography (SiO2, heptane/AcOEt 100:0 to 0:100) gave the title compound (14.6 g). UPLC (2 min) rt 1.415 min.
