Participants

Reaction Steps

2 ml of benzyl bromide in 8 ml of tetrahydrofuran are added to 0.0034 mol of 1,1′-methylenediimidazole 4 in an ACE pressure tube, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 4 days. The precipitated solid is washed with tetrahydrofuran and then taken up in acetonitrile, admixed once again with 1 ml of benzyl bromide and stirred at 60° C. for 24 hours, at room temperature for 3 days and at 80° C. for a further 30 hours. The resulting solid is filtered off, washed again with tetrahydrofuran and dried. This forms a white solid 19.
