General description

1-Butylimidazole acts as an N-coordinated ligand. 1-Butylimidazole is formed as intermediate during the synthesis of a cationic cyclodextrin, used in the chiral separation of amino acids and anionic pharmaceuticals by capillary electrophoresis. Influence of 1-butylimidazole as base on the synthesis of dissymmetric chlorohydrin ester has been reported.

Application

1-Butylimidazole may be used in the synthesis of a heterocyclic mesomeric betaine. It was used in the synthesis of 1-(1-butyl-3-imidazolio)propane-3-sulfonate (BIm3S).
