In the chemical reaction process, reaction time, type of solvent, can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product. An updated downstream synthesis route of 4426-11-3 as follows. Safety of Cyclobutanecarbonitrile
Example 275B 1-(1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)cyclobutanecarbonitrile To a solution of Example 275A (1.90 g, 11.4 mmol) in toluene (30 mL) was added cyclobutanecarbonitrile (1.01 g, 12.5 mmol) and potassium hexamethyldisilazide (34.2 mL, 17.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was poured into 1N HCl solution (50 mL) and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3*20 mL). The combined layers were washed with brine (100 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by prep. TLC on silicagel (eluted with EtOAc: petroleum ether=1:10) to give the title compound (1.0 g, 4.69 mmol, 41.1% yield) as a white solid. MS: MS (M+H)+; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): delta 7.80-7.78 (m, 1H), 7.36-7.30 (m, 3H), 3.83 (s, 3H), 3.13-3.05 (m, 2H), 2.99-2.92 (m, 2H), 2.48-2.41 (m, 1H), 2.24-2.18 (m, 1H).
According to the analysis of related databases, 4426-11-3, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.
