Application

N-Methoxy-N-methyl-1H-imidazole-1-carboxamide (or N-methoxy-N-methylcarbamoylimidazole) can be used as a reagent to prepare:
  • N-methoxy-N-methylcyanoformamide by reacting with trimethylsilyl cyanide.
  • Esters and amides via chemoselective esterification and amidation of carboxylic acids.
  • Carbamoylimidazolium iodides and their derivatives such as ureas, thioureas, carbamates, and amides upon reacting with amines, alcohols, thiols, and carboxylic acids.
