2-Methylimidazole (I) is converted into the bisulfate salt, and then nitrated by means of a sulfonitric mixture in Ac2O to produce 2-methyl-4-nitroimidazole (II) . In a variant of this procedure, 2-methylimidazole (I) is nitrated by using a ferric nitrate-tonsyl adduct in several solvents. Imidazole (II) is then regioselectively alkylated with boiling 2-chloroethanol to produce the title compound. Alternatively, the alkylation of (II) has been reported by treatment with ethylene oxide (III) under acidic conditions.

MCI-196 is synthesized by condensation of 2-methylimidazole (I) with epichlorohydrin (II) as follows: Equimolecular parts (0.5 M: 0.5 M) of (I) and (II) were allowed to condense in water (100 ml) at 90 C for 14 h; then 0.094 mol of (II) wa added and the reaction continued for 2 h at 45 C. The resulting resin was treated with 0.094 M of a 20% aqueous solution of NaOH and heated at 45 C for 2 h more. Finally, heat curing of the resin at 120 C for 5 h was performed. The resin was isolated by precipitation with water.

Treatment of acetonitrile derivative (I) with dibromoethane (II) in toluene in the presence of NaNH2 affords bromo compound (III), which is then condensed with imidazole derivative (IV) by means of Et3N in DMF to provide compound (V). Hydrolysis of the cyano group of (V) with aqueous H2SO4 yields amide derivative (VI), which is finally subjected to alkyl quaternization by reaction with bromobenzyl bromide (VI) in acetone to furnish the desired product.
