To a solution of 4-methylimidazole (20.0 g) and triethylamine (53.5 ml) in DMF (300 ml), a solution of triphenylchloromethane (71.3 g) in DMF (200 ml) was added dropwise at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. After finishing the dropping, and the mixture was allowed to be at room temperature and the mixture was stirred overnight. Water was added to the mixture, and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The obtained solid was washed with water twice and dried under reduced pressure, to give 4-methyl-1-triphenylmethylimidazole (79.1 g) as colorless solid.
