Abstract

One-pot multi-component condensation of benzyl, aldehydes, ammonium acetate and primary amines were used for synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted-1H-imidazole derivatives under MW radiation using amberlyst A-15 as a catalysts. This catalyst has several advantages (simple work-up, low cost and reusability).

One pot multi-component condensation of benzil, aldehydes, ammonium acetate and aromatic amine were used for synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted-1H-imidazole derivatives repectively under MW irradation using Amberlyst A as a catalyst.
