Procedure: Trans-1,4-dichloro-2-butene (1.14 ml, 10.8 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (27 ml) and purged with argon. Potassium pthalamide (1.00 g, 5.40 mmol) was added to the solution and the reaction was allowed to stir at room temperature overnight. The reaction was then poured into water (75 ml), which precipitated a white solid. This solid was collected by filtration and purified using silica gel chromatography (3:1 Hex: EtOAc) to afford a 76% yield (961 mg) of a white solid. purged with argon precipitated a white solid This solid was collected by filtration purified

Procedure: A mixture of 23.5 g. of N-(4-chloro-2-butenyl)-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione, 11.0 g. of sodium imidazol and 200 ml. of dimethyl formamide was heated on the steam bath for 18 hours and concentrated to remove the solvent; the residue was taken up in methylene chloride, washed with water, dried with magnesium sulfate and again concentrated. The residue was dissolved in hot ethylacetate and allowed to cool and N-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-2-butenyl]isoindole-1,3-(2H)-dione, m.p. 106°-108° C., was obtained. A mixture of 23.5 g concentrated to remove the solvent washed with water dried with magnesium sulfate again concentrated The residue was dissolved in hot ethylacetate to cool
