1-Vinylimidazole Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Brown liquid

Uses

1-Vinylimidazole is used as a monomer in the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers. It is involved in the removal of vinyl protecting groups with an isoprene-catalyzed lithiation process. Also, it is involved in the preparation of magnetic-poly(divinylbenzene-1-vinylimidazole) microbeads. Further, it is used to prepare ion imprinted polyvinylimidazole-silica hybrid copolymer.

Uses

1-Vinylimidazole has been employed:

• as functional monomer in the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers
• as monomer in the preparation of magnetic-poly(divinylbenzene-1-vinylimidazole) [m-poly(DVB-VIM)] microbeads
• in the synthesis of novel ion imprinted polyvinylimidazole-silica hybrid copolymer (IIHC)
• in removal of the vinyl protecting group via isoprene-catalyzed lithiation process

Uses

Removal of the vinyl protecting group with an isoprene-catalyzed lithiation process.1
