Regioselective N-alkylation of 1,3-azoles is a valuable transformation. Organomagnesium reagents were discovered to be competent bases to affect regioselective alkylation of various 1,3-azoles. Counterintuitively, substitution selectively occurred at the more sterically hindered nitrogen atom. Numerous examples are provided, on varying 1,3-azole scaffolds, with yields ranging from 25 to 95%.
Synthesis, ocular effects, and nitric oxide donation of imidazole amidoximes

Novel 1-R-imidazole-5-amidoximes and 1-R-5-cyano-imidazole-4-amidoximes (R: H, Me, Bn) were prepared from their corresponding nitriles and were tested for their efficacy to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in rabbits. The ability of these compounds to donate nitric oxide (NO) was studied by observing the stimulation of formation of cyclic guanosine-3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP) in the incubation of porcine iris-ciliary body. In the incubation experiments, 1-methylimidazole-5-amidoxime and 1(H)-imidazole-4(5)-amidoxime stimulated formation of cGMP indicating NO donating ability of these compounds. 1-Methylimidazole-5-amidoxime lowered IOP significantly after intravitreal injection.
Competing Pathways in the Phototransposition of Pyrazoles

Cyano-substituted pyrazoles transpose photochemically into imidazoles by two concurrent paths: (a) 1,5-interchange, probably by 2,5-bonding to a diazabicyclopentene which isomerises by nitrogen 'walk' before rearomatisation, and (b) 2,3-interchange, probably via an intermediate azirine; in sharp contrast, 1,5-dimethyl-3-trifluoromethylpyrazole phototransposes exclusively by the former path.
