Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed one-step synthesis of imidazoles from imines and acid chlorides is described. A plausible mechanism for this multicomponent reaction is provided, which explains the selective incorporation of two different imines into the final product with perfect regiocontrol. Overall, this catalytic process provides a modular method to prepare imidazoles directly from building blocks that are all either commercially available or readily generated.Entities:
