2-Methylimidazole 693-98-1 Usage

2-Methylimidazole is an inexpensive commercial reagent, which is a white to light yellow crystalline powder with an amine-like odor. It is a monomethylated imidazole that can be used as a building block in the preparation of a wide range of biologically active compounds. 2-Methylimidazole as well as other imidazoles can be use as catalyst for refolding of enhanced coloured fluorescent protein. 2-Methylimidazole has been identified as a byproduct of fermentation and is detected in foods and mainstream and side-str eam tobacco smoke. The competitive coordination of 2-methylimidazole promoted the generation of FeN active sites and greatly improved its ORR electrocatalytic performance.

In this study, a porphyrin-based heterobimetallic 2D metal organic framework (MOF), [(ZnTCPP)Co2(MeIm)] (1), is successfully self-assembled from the zinc(II) tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine (ZnTCPP) linker and cobalt(II) ions in the presence of 2-methylimidazole (MeIm) by a facile one-pot reaction in methanol at room temperature.

2-Methylimidazole assisted synthesis of nanocrystalline shell reinforced PPy hydrogel with high mechanical and electrochemical performance

Paragraph 0016; 0042-0046; 0050-0054; 0058-0061; 0066-0070, (2020/07/15)

Herein, a novel and facile strategy is proposed to fabricate nanocrystalline reinforced PPy hydrogels (m-PPy) via one-step oxidative polymerization of pyrrole and 2-methylimidazole (MeIm) using FeCl3 as oxidant.
