An Efficient Noncatalytic Protocol for the Synthesis of Trisubstituted Imidazole in Polyethylene Glycol Using Microwaves

An efficient and green procedure for the synthesis of 2, 4, 6-triaryl-1H-imidazole in polyethylene glycol under microwave irradiation in excellent yield has been developed. Polyethylene glycol is non toxic, reusable, inexpensive and easily available.
