Abstract
-A highly efficient synthesis of methyl 2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl) acetate (3) by the reaction mixture of imidazole (1) (0.068 g, 1.0 mmol), methyl acrylate (2) (0.086 g, 1 mmol) and 0.5% of indium triflate in 1 ml glycerol was irradiated in a closed vessel for 3 min in a Synthon 3000 microwave reactor (MWI)at 540 watt, 120 ° C and 10 bar pressure. Solid crude product was isolated from water by filtration. Ethyl acetate was used in case of gummy aza-Michael adduct product to extract from the aqueous medium. Experimental results are shown in tables 1,2&3.
