## Abstract The preparations of 4β and 5βnitroβ1βvinylimidazole (**2** and **7**) are described. Selective reduction of the nitro group using Fe/dil.HCl is achieved for the 4βnitro derivative but this is not effective when ethoxymethylenemalononitrile is used to trap the amine. For 5βnitroimidazole
