Abstract
Trisubstituted imidazoles have been synthesized in very short reaction times with excellent yields in the presence of 1,1,3,3-N,N,N′,N′- tetramethylguanidinium trifluoroacetate as an ionic liquid at 100°C. The ionic liquid can be recycled for subsequent reactions without any appreciable loss of efficiency. Copyright © Taylor & Francis LLC.
