Tetrabutyl ammonium bromide as a catalyst for reaction of 5(4)-bromo-2-methyl-4(5)-nitroimidazole with phenacyl bromides

Reactions of 5(4)-bromo-2-methyl-4(5)-nitroimidazole with phenacyl bromide, tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) and sodium bicarbonate in the sonication condition resulted in a mixture of 4-bromo-5-nitroimidazoles [IIIa-e] and 5-bromo-4-nitroimidazoles [IVa-e] at an excellent yield of over 85% and, surprisingly, at the isomers ratio of 2:1.
