Reaction Conditions:
Stage #1:1H-imidazole-4-carbonitrile with sodium hydride in N,N-dimethyl-formamide;mineral oil at 0 - 25; for 1 h;
Stage #2:methyl iodide in N,N-dimethyl-formamide;mineral oil at 25; for 2 h;
Steps:
Step 1: 1-Methylimidazole-4-carbonitrile (lnt-79)
lH-Imidazole-4-carbonitrile (Int-78) (4.000 g, 43 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (80 mL), the solution was cooled to 0 °C, and sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 1.89 g, 47.3 mmol) was added at 0 °C. The mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 1 h. Then, iodomethane (9.30 g, 65.5 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 2 h. After that, water (100 mL) was added, the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane / methanol (10: 1 (v/v), 3 x 100 mL), the combined organic layers were concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (240 g, silica gel, petroleum ether / ethyl acetate, gradient, 91:9 to 33:66 (v/v)) to give the title compound as a white solid (3.95 g, 36.9 mmol, 86% yield).
