Heravi, Majid Momahed; Karimi, Narges; Pooremami, Samira published an article about the compound: 2,4,5-Triphenylimidazole( cas:484-47-9,SMILESS:C1(C2=CC=CC=C2)=NC(C3=CC=CC=C3)=C(C4=CC=CC=C4)N1 ).Formula: C21H16N2. Aromatic heterocyclic compounds can be classified according to the number of heteroatoms or the size of the ring. The authors also want to convey more information about this compound (cas:484-47-9) through the article.
We introduced a very simple, one-pot three component procedure for preparation of 2,4,5-triaryl-imidazoles from the reaction of benzyl, aldehydes and ammonium acetate, as ammonia source, catalyzed by Caro’s acid-silica gel under Solvent -free condition.
After consulting a lot of data, we found that this compound(484-47-9)Formula: C21H16N2 can be used in many types of reactions. And in most cases, this compound has more advantages.
