Application
- Sterol Analysis: Describes the use of N-trimethylsilylimidazole for derivatizing sterols to facilitate fast GLC/MS analysis, which can be completed in under 12.5 minutes. This application is significant for analytical chemistry, particularly in sterol analysis (M Giera, F Plossl, F Bracher, 2023).
- Synthesis of Aryl-5-arylideneimidazol-4-ones: Discusses a new method using N-Trimethylsilylimidazole for the synthesis of 2,3-diaryl-5-arylidene-4imidazolones, involving a dehydration reaction of N-substituted α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, which is pertinent to medicinal chemistry (VO Topuzyan, SR Tosunyan, ER Aleksanyan, 2023).
- Preparation of Ionic Liquids: Outlines the synthesis of 1, 3-bis-(3-sulfonic acid) propyl imidazolium ionic liquids using N-trimethylsilylimidazole, illustrating its utility in the development of new ionic liquid frameworks useful in materials science (K Yuan, W Huang, T Zhang, L Lv, Y Wang, Z Zou, 2023).
- Ultrasonic synthesis of stable oil filled microcapsules: This study explores the ultrasonic synthesis of oil-filled microcapsules using thiolated chitosan, potentially involving derivatives like ᴅʟ-N-Acetylhomocysteine thiolactone for improved stability and functional properties. The research provides insights into advanced microencapsulation techniques relevant in pharmaceutical and industrial applications (Source).
