A one-step synthesis of substituted benzo- and pyridine-fused 1H-imidazoles

Substituted benzimidazoles and pyrimidazoles are an important group of heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds in the field of medicinal chemistry. A one-step microwave accelerated synthesis of substituted benzo- and pyridine-fused 1H-imidazoles has been described. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds by reacting substituted 2-fluoronitrobenzene and substituted arylamine through the formation of N-hydroxy intermediate, which at higher temperature cleaves to afford the desired product. This approach achieved reductions in reaction times, higher yields, cleaner reactions than the previously described synthetic processes.

H2 Activation with Co Nanoparticles Encapsulated in N-Doped Carbon Nanotubes for Green Synthesis of Benzimidazoles

Co nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated in N-doped carbon nanotubes (Co@NC900) are systematically investigated as a potential alternative to precious Pt-group catalysts for hydrogenative heterocyclization reactions. Co@NC900 can efficiently catalyze hydrogenative coupling of 2-nitroaniline to benzaldehyde for synthesis of 2-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole with >99 % yield at ambient temperature in one step. The robust Co@NC900 catalyst can be easily recovered by an external magnetic field after the reaction and readily recycled for at least six times without any evident decrease in activity. Kinetic experiments indicate that Co@NC900-promoted hydrogenation is the rate-determining step with a total apparent activation energy of 41±1 kJ mol?1. Theoretical investigations further reveal that Co@NC900 can activate both H2 and the nitro group of 2-nitroaniline. The observed energy barrier for H2 dissociation is only 2.70 eV in the rate-determining step, owing to the presence of confined Co NPs in Co@NC900. Potential industrial application of the earth-abundant and non-noble transition metal catalysts is also explored for green and efficient synthesis of heterocyclic compounds.

Preparation method of 2-substituted benzimidazole compound

The invention discloses a preparation method of a 2-substituted benzimidazole compound, and belongs to the field of synthesis of benzimidazole compounds. The 2-substituted benzimidazole compound is synthesized in an organic solvent by taking an o-nitroaniline compound, aromatic aldehyde, o-dinitrobenzene and aromatic aldehyde as raw materials and taking Co particles wrapped by a nitrogen-doped carbon material as a catalyst. According to the method, the 2-substituted benzimidazole compound can be prepared at room temperature, the reaction conditions are mild, the yield is as high as 95%, the selectivity is as high as 99%, and the method is economical, environmentally friendly and wide in substrate applicability. The used catalyst is easy to prepare, low in cost and good in reusability, canbe separated by utilizing magnetism, and is convenient to recover, so that the method has a relatively strong industrial application prospect.

Solvent-Free N-Alkylation and Dehydrogenative Coupling Catalyzed by a Highly Active Pincer-Nickel Complex

The synthesis and characterization of a pincer-nickel complex of the type (iPr2NNN)NiCl2(CH3CN) is reported here. We have demonstrated the utility of this pincer-nickel complex (0.02 and 0.002 mol %) for the catalytic N-alkylation of amines using various alcohols. Under solvent-free conditions, while the highest yield (ca. 90%) was obtained for the alkylation of 2-aminopyridine with naphthyl-1-methanol, excellent turnovers (34000 TONs) were observed for the alkylation of 2-aminopyridine with 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol. To demonstrate the synthetic utility of these systems, high-yield reactions (up to 98%) have been probed for representative substrates with a higher loading of the pincer-nickel catalyst (4 mol %). DFT studies indicate that while β-hydride elimination is the RDS for alcohol dehydrogenation, the N-alkylated product can be formed either via hydrogenation with a rate-determining σ-bond metathesis or by alcoholysis that has imine insertion as the RDS. All of the corresponding resting states have been observed by HRMS (ESI) analysis. The labeling experiments are also complementary to DFT studies and show evidence for the involvement of the benzylic C-H bond in the RDS with a kCHH/kCHD value of about 2.5. This method has been applied to accomplish efficient (2000 TONs) dehydrogenative coupling leading to various benzimidazoles.

A one-pot synthesis of benzimidazoles via aerobic oxidative condensation of benzyl alcohols with o-phenylenediamines catalyzed by [MIMPs]+Cl-/NaNO2/TEMPO

The ionic liquid 1-methyl-3-(3-sulfopropyl)imidazolium chloride ([MIMPs]+Cl-) in combination with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) and sodium nitrite (NaNO2) as a catalytic system demonstrates high efficiency in the one-pot two-step aerobic oxidative condensation of benzyl alcohols with 1,2-phenylenediamines to give benzimidazoles. Various benzimidazoles are obtained in good to excellent yields by this strategy.

New synthesis method of thiabendazole

The invention relates to a new synthetic route of a drug commonly named as thiabendazole. Thiazole-4-formaldehyde is used as a raw material, and is condensed with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to obtainthiazole-4-formaldoxime, thiazole-4-formaldoxime is subjected to chlorination by using NCS, and then reacts with aniline to obtain N-phenylthiazole-4-methylamine oxime, then N-phenylthiazole-4-methylamine oxime reacts with p-trifluoromethyl benzoyl chloride to obtain an amidoxime ester, and finally a visible-light-catalyzed free radical reaction is adopted for cyclization to obtain thiazole. According to the method, the visible-light-catalyzed free radical reaction is used to the synthesis of thiabendazole for the first time, the reaction conditions of a high temperature and a strong acid inthe traditional synthesis method are avoided, and thereby the reaction is greener and milder. The method has a broad spectrum, and can also be used for synthesis of imidazole compounds Ia-Ial.

Formation of Amidinyl Radicals via Visible-Light-Promoted Reduction of N-Phenyl Amidoxime Esters and Application to the Synthesis of 2-Substituted Benzimidazoles

We have developed a new method for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazoles via amidinyl radicals generated by visible-light-promoted reduction of N-phenyl amidoxime esters in the presence of an iridium photocatalyst. This is the first report of the use of N-phenyl amidoxime esters as amidinyl radical precursors, and the first use of substituted benzene rings as amidinyl radical acceptors. This method widens the application range of substrates and overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional methods for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazoles, which requires harsh reaction conditions, involves difficult-to-prepare substituted o-phenylenediamine substrates, and produces acidic waste.

Additive- and Oxidant-Free Expedient Synthesis of Benzimidazoles Catalyzed by Cobalt Nanocomposites on N-Doped Carbon

A one-pot direct synthesis of a wide range of biologically active benzimidazoles through coupling of phenylenediamines and aldehydes catalyzed by a highly recyclable nonnoble cobalt nanocomposite was developed. A broad set of benzimidazoles can be efficiently synthesized in high yields and with good functional-group tolerance under additive- and oxidant-free mild conditions. The catalyst can be easily recycled for successive uses, and the process permits gram-scale syntheses of benzimidazoles.

C-N Bond Formation Catalyzed by Ruthenium Nanoparticles Supported on N-Doped Carbon via Acceptorless Dehydrogenation to Secondary Amines, Imines, Benzimidazoles and Quinoxalines

Ruthenium nanoparticles (NPs) supported on N-doped carbon (Ru/N?C) were prepared by the pyrolysis of cis-Ru(phen)2Cl2 loaded onto carbon powder (VULCAN XC72R) at 800 °C. Ru/N?C NPs (0.2 mol% Ru) selectively catalyzed either acceptorless dehydrogenation coupling (ADC) or auto-transfer-hydrogen (ATH) reactions of amines with alcohols to imines and secondary amines. Such selectivity could be controlled by the choice of alkali metal ion associated with the base. Under similar catalytic conditions, the ADC cross-coupling of diamines with primary alcohols or diols afforded the corresponding benzimidazoles and quinoxalines in good to excellent yields. This catalytic system displayed good activity, recyclability, and wide applicability to a diverse range of substrates.
