Magnesium nitride nano particles as a source of ammonia for the synthesis of highly substituted imidazoles

The study aims at evaluating the application of magnesium nitride (Mg3N2) nano particles as a suitable source of ammonia for the synthesis of 2, 4, 5-trisubstituted imidazoles. The tests revealed that heating a mixture of a benzaldehyde, a benzyl, and magnesium nitride nano particles in methanol leads to the formation of functionalized imidazoles in good to excellent yields.
