A reaction between ethyl α-cyanocinnamate and o-phenylenediamine under thermal conditions yielded 2-cyano-3-phenyl-propionic acid ethyl ester, 2-phenyl benzimidazole, and ethyl cyanoacetate. The mechanistic revelations led to the development of a simple and efficient transfer-hydrogenation process from the in situ generated benzimidazolines to activated olefins under solventless and catalyst-free conditions.

The Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine ester (1) has been observed to be a useful selective reducing agent for the reduction of electron-withdrawing conjugated double bonds. The rate of this reaction was observed to be dependent upon the nature of the conjugate
