Copper and zinc co-catalyzed synthesis of imidazoles via the activation of sp3 C–H and N–H bonds
摘要:
An efficient and facile approach to synthesize imidazoles from amidines and arylketone via oxidative coupling of sp(3) C-H bond and N-H bond is reported. This strategy exhibits high performance in terms of regioselectivity with moderate to high yields by using easily available materials, and provides an alternative method to synthesize multi-substituted imidazole skeletons.

A simple and facile approach to highly functionalized imidazole derivatives in moderate to good yields has
been developed. This method involves copper catalyzed aerobic [3+2] cycloaddition of amidines with nitroolefins in
absence of ligand. Based on observation of the intermediates, possible reaction mechanism different from the same
reported approach was proposed.
