Heterocyclic compound -
Imidazole
Lecture by
S.Mathivanan.,M.Pharm
Asst professor
Pharmacy
Introduction
 Imidazole was first reported in 1858 by the
German chemist Heinrich Debus from Glyoxal
and ammonia and named as Glyoxaline.
 The name "imidazole" was coined in 1887 by
the German chemist Arthur Rudolf
Hantzsch (18571935).
Imidazole
 Imidazole is an organic compound with the
formula C3H4N2. This aromatic heterocycle is a
diazole and is classified as an alkaloid.
 Imidazole refers to the parent compound,
whereas imidazoles are a class heterocylces
with similar ring structure but varying
substituents.
Biological importance
 This ring system is present in important biological
building blocks, such as histidine and the related
hormone histamine.
 Many drugs contain an imidazole ring, such as
antifungal drugs e.g.clotrimazole, antiulcer drugs,
cimetidine etc. and antimicrobial nitroimidazoles,
e.g. metronidazole, ornidazole etc.
Physical properties
 It is a white or colourless solid that is soluble
in water.
 Melting point : 89  91属C
 Boiling point : 256属C
 Density : 1.23 g/cm3

Heterocyclic compound   imidazole
Amphoterism
 Imidazole is amphoteric. That is,
 It can function as both an acid and as a base.
 As an acid, the pKa of imidazole is 14.5, making it less
acidic than carboxylic acids, phenols, and imides, but
slightly more acidic than alcohols.
 As a base, the pKa of the conjugate acid (cited as
pKBH
+ to avoid confusion between the two) is
approximately 7, making imidazole approximately
sixty times more basic than pyridine.
