Procedure

A solution of 3-chloro-2-nitro-aniline (CXXI) (1.0 g, 5.8 mmol), potassium carbonate (2.4 g, 17.4 mmol), and 4-methylimidazole in dry DMF was heated overnight at 120° C. under nitrogen. The reaction was cooled and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was suspended in a saturated NaHCO3 solution and extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography to provide 3-(4-methyl-imidazol-1-yl)-2-nitro-phenylamine (CXXIX). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ ppm 2.19 (s, 3H), 6.53 (m, 1H), 6.79 (m, 1H), 6.93 (m, 1H), 7.32 (m, 1H), 7.60 (m, 1H).
