Case Study

Synthesis of Multi-Substituted Imidazole Derivatives via Heterogeneous Catalysis

Kerru, Nagaraju, et al. Synthetic Communications, 2019, 49(19), 2437-2459.

The unique structural characteristics of the imidazole ring and the ideal electron-rich properties facilitate imidazole derivatives to easily bind to a variety of enzymes and receptors in biological systems through a variety of weak interactions, thereby exhibiting a wide range of biological activities. Many heterogeneous catalytic reaction pathways have been investigated for the synthesis of multisubstituted imidazole conjugates.
Heterogeneous catalytic synthesis of imidazole derivatives
· Effective heterogeneous catalytic materials include iron oxide, silicon dioxide, zirconia, chitosan, and aluminum oxide, etc.
· The Lewis acid iron oxide nanocomposites, zirconia, aluminum oxide, and nanoporous silica acid catalysts were applied in one-pot condensation reaction afforded multisubstituted imidazoles.
· Success of use of ionic liquid in construction of functionalized imidazoles opens new avenues of their synthesis.
