Imidazolinone
Imidazolinones or imidazolones are a family of heterocyclic compounds, the parents of which have the formula OC(NH)2(CH)2. Two isomers are possible, depending on the location of the carbonyl (CO) group. The NH groups are nonadjacent. A common route to imidazol-2-ones involves condensation of ureas and acyloins. Some are of interest in the pharmaceuticals.{{cite journal, journal=Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds, year=2015, volume=51, pages=395–420 , title=Methods for the synthesis of 1-substituted 1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ones, first1=Maria M., last1=Antonova, first2=Vladimir V., last2=Baranov, first3=Angelina N., last3=Kravchenko, issue=5 , doi=10.1007/s10593-015-1716-3 4-Imidazolones arise from the condensation of amidines with 1,2-dicarbonyls such as glyoxal Glyoxal is an organic compound with the chemical formula OCHCHO.

Heterocyclic Compound
A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring(s). Heterocyclic organic chemistry is the branch of organic chemistry dealing with the synthesis, properties, and applications of organic heterocycles. Examples of heterocyclic compounds include all of the nucleic acids, the majority of drugs, most biomass (cellulose and related materials), and many natural and synthetic dyes. More than half of known compounds are heterocycles. 59% of US FDA-approved drugs contain nitrogen heterocycles. Classification The study of organic heterocyclic chemistry focuses especially on organic unsaturated derivatives, and the preponderance of work and applications involves unstrained organic 5- and 6-membered rings. Included are pyridine, thiophene, pyrrole, and furan. Another large class of organic heterocycles refers to those fused to benzene rings. For example, the fused benzene derivatives of py ...

Isomer
In chemistry, isomers are molecules or polyatomic ions with identical molecular formula – that is, the same number of atoms of each element (chemistry), element – but distinct arrangements of atoms in space. ''Isomerism'' refers to the existence or possibility of isomers. Isomers do not necessarily share similar chemical property, chemical or physical property, physical properties. Two main forms of isomerism are structural isomerism, structural (or constitutional) isomerism, in which ''chemical bond, bonds'' between the atoms differ; and stereoisomerism (or spatial isomerism), in which the bonds are the same but the ''relative positions'' of the atoms differ. Isomeric relationships form a hierarchy. Two chemicals might be the same constitutional isomer, but upon deeper analysis be stereoisomers of each other. Two molecules that are the same stereoisomer as each other might be in different conformational forms or be different Isotopologue, isotopologues. The depth of analy ...

Acyloin
In organic chemistry, acyloins or α-hydroxy ketones are a class of organic compounds of the general form , composed of a hydroxy group () adjacent to a ketone group (). The name ''acyloin'' is derived from the fact that they are formally derived from reductive coupling of carboxylic acyl groups (). They are one of the two main classes of hydroxy ketones, distinguished by the position of the hydroxy group relative to the ketone; in this form, the hydroxy is on the alpha carbon, explaining the secondary name of ''α-hydroxy ketone''. Synthesis Classic organic reactions exist for the synthesis of acyloins. * The acyloin condensation is a reductive coupling of esters * The benzoin condensation is condensation reaction between aldehydes catalyzed by a nucleophile * Oxidation of carbonyls is possible with molecular oxygen but not selective * Better alternative is oxidation of corresponding silyl enol ethers with ''m''CPBA in the Rubottom oxidation * MoOPH oxidation of carbo ...

Amidine
Amidines are organic compounds with the functional group RC(NR)NR2, where the R groups can be the same or different. They are the imine derivatives of amides (RC(O)NR2). The simplest amidine is formamidine, HC(=NH)NH2. Examples of amidines include: * 1,8-Diazabicycloundec-7-ene, DBU * diminazene * benzamidine * Pentamidine * Paranyline Preparation A common route to primary amidines is the Pinner reaction. Reaction of the nitrile with alcohol in the presence of acid gives an Carboximidate, iminoether. Treatment of the resulting compound with ammonia then completes the conversion to the amidine. Instead of using a Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Bronsted acid, Lewis acids and bases, Lewis acids such as Aluminium chloride, aluminium trichloride promote the direct amination of nitriles, or, in certain exceptional cases, of amides. Dimethylformamide acetal reacts with primary amines to give amidines: :Me2NC(H)(OMe)2 + RNH2 → Me2NC=NHR + 2 MeOH Catalysis is likewise not require ...

Glyoxal
Glyoxal is an organic compound with the chemical formula OCHCHO. It is the smallest dialdehyde (a compound with two aldehyde groups). It is a crystalline solid, white at low temperatures and yellow near the melting point (15 °C). The liquid is yellow, and the vapor is green.O'Neil, M.J. (2001): ''The Merck Index'', 13th Edition, page 803. Pure glyoxal is not commonly encountered because glyoxal is usually handled as a 40% aqueous solution (density near 1.24 g/mL). It forms a series of hydrates, including oligomers. For many purposes, these hydrated oligomers behave equivalently to glyoxal. Glyoxal is produced industrially as a precursor to many products. Production Glyoxal was first prepared and named by the German-British chemist Heinrich Debus (chemist), Heinrich Debus (1824–1915) by reacting ethanol with nitric acid. Commercial glyoxal is prepared either by the gas-phase oxidation of ethylene glycol in the presence of a silver or copper catalyst (the Laporte process) ...
