Abstract
A number of derivatives of mercaptomono- and dinitroimidazoles were synthesized by the action of potassium sulfide on the corresponding halonitroimidazoles. Mono- and dipotassium salts of mercaptonitroimidazoles were obtained. It was established that the monopotassium salts of mercaptomono- and dinitroimidazoles react with 2,4,6-trinitrochlorobenzene to give picrylmercapto derivatives, dipotassium salts of mononitromercaptoimidazoles give, depending on the ratio of the components, picrylmercaptonitroimidazoles or S.N-dipicrylmercaptonitroimidazoles, and dipotassium salts of mercaptodinitroimidazole give only picrylmercaptonitroimidazoles.
