Abstract

A new multicomponent reaction leading to the formation of an imidazole ring was discovered: N,N′-diaryl-1,4-diazabuta-1,3-dienes reacted with trialkyl orthoformates, chloro(trimethyl)silane and water to give N,N′-1,3-diaryl-4-oxoimidazolinium salts or their tautomers, 4-hydroxyimidazolium salts.
