Abstract

A water-accelerated multicomponent synthesis of organic target molecules has been used as a key method for the preparation of novel imidazole derivatives. The three-component condensation reactions of primary amines with trichloroacetonitrile in the presence of ninhydrine in water are developed as efficient and clean green synthetic procedures for the high-yielding preparation of imidazoles.

Keywords: Indenoimidazole, Ninhydrine, Primary amines, three-component reaction, trichloroacetonitrile.
