Methyl iodide → 1-(3,4-Dihydroquinolin-1(2H)-ylcarbonyl)-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium Iodide

Participants

Reaction Steps

13.3 g of 1-(1H-imidazol-1-ylcarbonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, 133 ml of acetonitrile and 14.6 ml of iodomethane are introduced into a 500 ml round-bottomed flask. The reaction mixture is stirred for 20 h and then the solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure to result in 23 g of 1-(3,4-dihydroquinolin-1(2H)-ylcarbonyl)-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium iodide.
