Activation of the Cyano Group at Imidazole via Copper Stimulated Alcoholysis

Reactions of 4,5-dicyano-1-methylimidazole with CuX<sub>2</sub> (X = Cl, Br) in alcohol solvents (ethanol and methanol) resulted in the formation of Cu(II) carboximidate complexes [CuCl<sub>2</sub>(5- cyano-4-C(OEt)N-1-methylimidazole)(EtOH)] (<b>1</b>), [Cu<su...
