Synthesis of 4,5-Substituted Imidazoles by a Fast Condensation of 1,2-Diketones and Urotropine in Heterogeneous Medium

Abstract

Starting from 1,2-diketones and urotropine in the presence of ammonium acetate, a simple and efficient solventless microwave-assisted synthesis of 4,5-disubstituted imidazoles was accomplished.

heterocycles - 4,5-disubstituted imidazoles - ketones - urotropine - microwave
