Abstract: 

Glycine was acylated with isothiocyanates and condensed to 3-alkyl
2-thiohydantoins, which were reduced with a mixture of sodium
borohydride and lithium chloride and dehydrated to 1-alkyl
imidazole-2-thiones. These were oxidatively desulfurized to imidazoles
with benzoyl peroxide. No chromatography was required for model
compounds. The methods developed were used to elaborate tyrosine to
1,4-di(p-methoxybenzyl)imidazole, a common intermediate in the syntheses of three imidazoles from the sponge Leucetta.
