Abstract
A three-component condensation of 2-unsubstituted imidazole N-oxides, 3-ketonitriles, and aldehydes is described. The reaction proceeds via sequential Knoevenagel condensation/Michael addition under mild, catalyst-free conditions with various substrates. Furthermore, the corresponding 2-functionalized imidazole N-oxides can be further dehydrated to (Z)-2-aroyl-3-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-acrylonitriles, which may also be directly prepared by changing the reaction conditions as a cascade of Knoevenagel condensation/Michael addition/dehydration.

Abstract
A new synthetic protocol has been developed to construct polyfunctional isoxazol-5-one derivatives with imidazole moiety. It is based on the Knoevenagel condensation of isoxazol-5-one with aldehydes and subsequent Michael addition of imidazole N-oxides as part of a tandem three-component process. This reaction proceeds smoothly in moderate-to-good yield under catalyst-free conditions.

Synthesis and Selected Transformations of 2-Unsubstituted Imidazole N-Oxides Using a Ball-Milling Mechanochemical Approach. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
Synthetically relevant 2-unsubstituted imidazole N-oxides were obtained by using the ball-milling mechanochemical method. The presented approach extended the scope of the known method and enabled the preparation of hitherto little known N(1)-aryl-substituted derivatives, which are of interest as starting materials for the synthesis of more complex imidazole-based organic materials, generally in good to excellent yields. In addition, selected one-pot mechanochemical transformations including N- and O-alkylations as well as sulfur transfer reactions based on either (3+2)-cycloaddition reaction with 2,2,4,4-tetramethylcyclobutane-1,3-dithione or sulfurization of the transient imidazol-2-ylidenes, generated from corresponding imidazolium salts, were studied. The reported results can be considered as a continuation of long-term studies focused on the synthesis and applications of 2-unsubstituted imidazole N-oxides.
