“…[17][18][19][20][21][22] Among nitrogen-containing heterocyclic systems, the imidazole scaffold is one of the most important and ubiquitously found in a variety of compounds, including natural products, amino acids, proteins, alkaloids, pharmaceutical substances, agrochemicals, and functional materials. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] Additionally, imidazoles have provided an imperative contribution as organocatalysts [37][38][39] as well as N-heterocyclic carbene in the field of organic synthesis. 40 The synthesis of amino groups containing imidazoles such as 2-aminoimidazole and their derivatives has been widely explored, as they are easy to synthesize directly from guanidine derivatives, particularly following a desulfurization strategy.…”
