General description

4-Imidazolecarboxaldehyde undergoes reductive amination with the amine in the presence of sodium borohydride to form secondary amines.

Application

4-Imidazolecarboxaldehyde may be used in the following studies:
  • Synthesis of new donor-Π-acceptor (D-Π-A) type dye.
  • Preparation of ethyl, n-dodecyl and n-hexadecyl esters of urocanic acid (4-imidazoleacrylic acid).
  • Fabrication of colorimetric chemosensor.
  • Synthesis of chiral nickel(II) complex, [Ni(II)H3L](ClO4)2, having an achiral ligand H3L (tris{2-(4-imidazolyl)methyliminoethyl}amine).
