Abstract

The condensations of anilines (p-toluidine, 2-nitro-, 3-nitro-, and 4-nitroanilines), formaldehyde, and benzil monooxime were studied for the first time. 1-Aryl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ones (imidazolones) with 1-(3-nitro- and 4-nitro)phenyl substituents were prepared. 1-(p-Tolyl)imidazolone was synthesized by rearrangement of 3-hydroxy-4,5-diphenyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium acetate under the action of Ac2O. The thermally induced rearrangement of 1-(3-nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole 3-oxide to 1-(3-nitrophenyl)imidazolon was confirmed and the reaction mechanism was proposed.
