Abstract

A new methodology for functionalization of the imidazole ring via the zwitterionic intermediates and their carbene tautomers generated by nucleophilic addition of 1-substituted imidazoles to electron-deficient acetylenes followed by the reactions with appropriate electrophiles is discussed.
