Abstract

The review highlights the recent advances (2018-present) in the regiocontrolled synthesis of substituted imidazoles. These heterocycles are key components to functional molecules that are used in a variety of everyday applications. An emphasis has been placed on the bonds constructed during the formation of the imidazole. The utility of these methodologies based around the functional group compatibility of the process and resultant substitution patterns around the ring are described, including discussion of scope and limitations, reaction mechanisms and future challenges.

Highlights

  • The development of novel methods for the regiocontrolled synthesis of substituted imidazoles is of strategic importance

  • This review is focused on recent advances in the synthesis of imidazoles and is organized via the sorts of bond disconnections that were employed in order to construct the heterocycle

  • On average the yields for the synthesis of nitrogen substituted imidazoles using nano-magnetic catalyst were approximately 10% lower than for the NH-imidazoles described above
