Electrochemical Synthesis of Benzimidazoles via Dehydrogenative Cyclization of Amidines

The development of efficient and sustainable methodologies for the synthesis of N-heterocycles is a constant focus of organic synthesis. Herein an electrochemical method is reported for the synthesis of benzimidazoles through dehydrogenative cyclization of easily available N-aryl amidines. The reactions were conducted under simple constant current conditions in an undivided cell without need for catalysts, chemical oxidants, or additives, and produced H2 as the only theoretical byproduct.

Microwave assisted synthesis and potent antimicrobial activity of some novel 1,3-dialkyl-2-arylbenzimidazolium salts

Background: Benzimidazolium salts include biologically active benzimidazole ring. Some benzimidazolium salts and their metal complexes, containing different groups, showed remarkable antibacterial, antifungal and antitumor effects. Most of these studies are generally related with the 2-unsubstituted derivatives of benzimidazolium salts which named as N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). To enhance the efficacy of the benzimidazoles in the biological systems, it is very important to overcome the insolubility problem. For this reason and previously indicated structural importance of the benzimidazolium salts, 1,3-dialkyl halide salts of the 2-arylbenzimidazoles, are of focus in this work. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that describes the microwave assisted synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 2-arylsubstituted benzimidazolium salts. Methods: A series of novel 1,3-dialkyl-2-arylbenzimidazolium salts (8-28) were synthesized via the N-alkylation of 1-methyl-2-arylbenzimidazole derivatives (1-7) with alkyl halides under microwave conditions by using small amount of DMF. The results were also compared with conventional heating under reflux. Structures of the products were confirmed by using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FTIR spectroscopic techniques. All of the synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activities using microbroth tube dilution and disc diffusion methods. Results: Considering the reactions repeated by classical heating, it was determined that the reaction times were decreased from 3-6 hours to 5-35 minutes under microwave. Additionally, yields have increased from 4-71 % to 64-96 % ranges. Considering the whole antimicrobial activity studies, MIC values of newly synthesized benzimidazolium salts 8-28 (1.95->1500 μg/ml) are remarkably smaller than parent benzimidazoles 1-7 (62.5->1500 μg/ml) on the studied microorganisms. Conclusion: The microwave method is advantageous regarding the usage of mild conditions and small amounts of solvent, easy purification and achieving high yields in short times. The antimicrobial activity studies demonstrate that newly synthesized salts (8-28) are effective mostly on grampositives and eukaryotic microorganisms. Compounds 16, 18, 19, 24, 25 and 27 were found to be the most effective inhibitors of growth in both gram-positive bacteria and eukaryotes. Thus, the synthesized compounds in this study may aid the treatment of fungal and bacterial diseases. The results of this study are of great significance in the areas of synthetic organic chemistry, microbiology, pharmaceutical chemistry and chemical catalysis.

Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Directed C?H Amidation of N-Nitrosoanilines and Subsequent Formation of 1,2-Disubstituted Benzimidazoles

An efficient rhodium-catalyzed direct C?H amidation of N-nitrosoanilines with 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones as amidating agents has been developed. This method featured mild reaction conditions, a wide substrate scope and satisfactory yields. Besides, the amidated products could be readily converted to pharmaceutically valuable 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles via an HCl-mediated deprotection/cyclization process in one pot.

Gold nanoparticles supported on titanium dioxide: An efficient catalyst for highly selective synthesis of benzoxazoles and benzimidazoles

A highly efficient and selective reaction for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzoxazoles and benzimidazoles catalyzed by Au/TiO2 has been developed via two hydrogen-transfer processes. This reaction has a good tolerance to air and water, a wide substrate scope, and represents a new avenue for practical C-N and C-O bond formation. More importantly, no additional additives, oxidants and reductants are required for the reaction and the catalyst can be recovered and reused readily. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.

Copper and iron-assisted palladium-catalyzed direct arylation of azoles with arylboronic acids under ligand and base-free conditions

The direct arylation of azoles with arylboronic acids is effectively promoted by PdCl2 in the presence of copper and iron salts under ligand and base-free conditions. This reaction can be applied to heterocycles such as benzothiazole, benzoxazole, 1-methylbenzimidazole and 4,5-dimethylthiazole with moderate to good yields.

Ligand-free CuO nanospindle catalyzed arylation of heterocycle C-H bonds

CuO nanospindles have been developed to efficiently catalyze the direct arylation of heterocycle C-H bonds with moderate to excellent yields. This reaction can be applied to heterocycles such as benzoxazole, benzothiazole, and 1-methylbenzimidazole in the presence of a more environmentally friendly inorganic base like K2CO3 under ligand-free catalytic conditions. In addition, the catalyst can be recycled and reused without any significant decrease in catalytic activity.

Aerobic oxidative coupling of amines by carbon nitride photocatalysis with visible light

Coupling on sunshine: A simple and efficient synthesis of benzoxazoles, benzimidazoles, and benzothiazoles is realized through a one-pot preparation driven by a photocatalytic cascade reaction. Carbon nitride and visible light are employed to achieve this metal-free aerobic oxidation of amines to imines (see scheme; mpg-C3N4=mesoporous graphite carbon nitride). Copyright

Copper-mediated direct arylation of benzoazoles with aryl iodides

The direct arylation of 1,3-benzoazole compounds with aryl iodides is effectively promoted by CuI with use of PPh3 and Na2CO3 or K3PO4 as ligand and base, respectively, in DMF or DMSO to produce the corresponding 2-arylated products with good yields.

A Keggin heteropoly acid as an efficient catalyst for an expeditious, one-pot synthesis of 1-methyl-2-(hetero)arylbenzimidazoles

The Keggin heteropoly acid, silicotungstic acid, H4SiW12O40, has been demonstrated to be highly efficient for an expeditious, one-pot synthesis of 1-methyl-2-(hetero)arylbenzimidazoles from N-methyl-1,2-phenylenediamine and (hetero)aryl aldehydes in ethyl acetate at room temperature. The catalyst works equally well for N-phenyl-1,2-phenylenediamine.

Palladium-Catalyzed Arylation of Azole Compounds with Aryl Halides in the Presence of Alkali Metal Carbonates and the Use of Copper Iodide in the Reaction

The reactions of iodobenzene with azole compounds, 1,2-disubstituted imidazoles and 2-substituted oxazoles and thiazoles, were examined in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 and PPh3 in DMF using alkali metal carbonates as bases. It was found that the coupling products, 5-arylazoles, could be selectively produced in good yields by using CS2CO3. In the case that their 2-position is unsubstituted, the site could also be arylated. In reactions using bromobenzene in place of iodobenzene, K2CO3 was also as effective as Cs2CO3- The addition of a stoichiometric amount of Cul appeared to specifically promote the reactions of thiazoles as well as those of thiophene derivatives. The reactions of 2-unsubstituted azole compounds with aryl iodides could be mediated by Cul to some extent without using the palladium species to give 2-arylazoles.
