Abstract
A convenient, high-yielding, regiospecific synthesis of 1H-imidazole-2-thiones ring has been developed. In addition, a series of 4,5-diaryl-1-methyl-2-(methylthio)-1H-imidazoles 8 were synthesized and characterized. The structure of regioisomers was confirmed through nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy.
