Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → 3-(4-Methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propan-1-amine

Temperature

50 °C

2-(3-(4-Methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (3.42 mmol, 1 eq., which may be prepared as described in D6) and hydrazine monohydrate (6.84 mmol, 2 eq.) were dissolved in 20 mL of ethanol and the mixture was stirred for 12 h under reflux. The mixture was kept under reflux over night, then the mixture was concentrated down to a volume of 25 mL. Hydrochloric acid (conc., 55 mL) was then added and the mixture was heated to 50° C. and kept at this temperature for 30 min. The formed precipitate was then filtered. The filtrate was cooled to 0° C. and solid NaOH was added until a final pH-value of 10-12 was reached. The aqueous solution was extracted by means of CHCl3 (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the solvent was removed. The product was purified by means of flash-chromatography using silica gel and a CHCl3/MeOH-gradient containing aqueous ammonia (2% v/v).
