[摘要]:A metal-free, three-component process for the C2-functionalization of N-alkylated imidazoles is reported The multicomponent manifold operates under 'on water' conditions through the formation of a water-stable (permanent) nucleophilic imidazole carbene (imidazolium ylide). Whereas the incorporated vinyl ether functionality is a convenient handle for further chemical manipulation of the functionalized heterocycle (complexity generation), the use of water as the reaction media gives it a bonus of added benefits in terms of safety, bench-friendly processing and environmental care. |
