25. 12 Traces of p-toluenesulfonamide were found when the process leading to imidazole 5 was less efficient (entries 18, 25, 27).
26. 13 Experiments in DMSO were also carried out but, after aqueous quenching of the reaction and extraction with ether (see experimental), the evaporation to dryness of the aqueous/DMSO phase presented some practical difficulties. DMF was thus preferred as reaction solvent because of an easier work-up of the aqueous/DMF phase.
