Reaction Conditions:
with dihydrogen peroxide in water at 20; for 72 h;
Steps:
2.2.1 Im2COOH (1b)
An aqueous 30% H2O2 solution (10g) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde (2.88g 0.030mol) in water (10ml). The reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 72h, following which the water was removed in vacuo at room temperature to afford a white crystalline solid. This solid was washed with a stirred mixture of diethylether/water (4:1) to remove the excess peroxide. Note: heating causes decarboxylation. Yield: 97.5%. Mp=156-158°C. δH (400MHz, D2O): 7.56 (2H, s, Im-H); δC (400MHz, D2O): 158.86, 141.02, 120.49ppm.
