Abstract
Abstract2-Phenyl-5-(2-furyl)- and 2-phenyl-5-(2-thienyl)imidazoles were synthesized by condensation of 2-furoylmethyl and 2-thenoylmethyl acetates with benzaldehyde under the conditions of Weidenhagen reaction. The products were converted to N-methyl derivatives in the KOH-acetone system. The electrophilic substitution reactions of the products (acylation, bromination, nitration, sulfonation, hydroxymethylation) were studied.
