General description

1,3-Dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone constitutes the mobile phase during size-exclusion chromatographic analysis of cellulose.

Application

1,3-Dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone was used as substitute solvent for toxic HMPA in the synthesis of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzene. It was employed as solvent during α-regioselective prenylation of imines.

Other Notes

Solvent used in various synthetic organic transformations. Studied in the formation of functionally stabilized hydrosilanediyl-transition metal complexes produced photochemically from arylsilanes.

A practical and safe synthesis of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzene from 1,2-dichlorobenzene and Me3SiCl was achieved by use of a hybrid metal of Mg and CuCl in the presence of LiCl in 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (DMI). This method does not require a toxic HMPA, provides

A highly α-regioselective prenylation of imines has been successfully developed. The efficiency of this approach is confirmed by a wide range of imines including N- and C-aryl aldimines, N-alkyl aldimines, C-alkyl aldimines, and N- and C-aryl ketimines. The approach uses

A key step in generating planar cell polarity (PCP) is the formation of restricted junctional domains containing Frizzled/Dishevelled/Diego (Fz/Dsh/Dgo) or Van Gogh/Prickle (Vang/Pk) complexes within the same cell, stabilized via Flamingo (Fmi) across cell membranes.
