2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole was prepared from 2,4,5-tribromoimidazole and 1,2-dibromoethane and its Br-atoms were replaced regioselectively in the order 2 → 5 → 4 via Br → MgBr and other exchange reactions. Efficient removal of die vinyl groups from die resulting polyfunctionalized imidazoles was achieved with ozone or potassium permanganate. An extension of this methodology has allowed the first synthesis of thieno[2,3-d] ? [3,2-d]-imidazole.
