A library of benzimidazole derivatives 1–20 were synthesized, and studied for their α-chymotrypsin (α-CT) inhibitory activity in vitro. Kinetics and molecular docking studies were performed to identify the type of inhibition. Compound 1 was found to be a good inhibitor of α-chymotrypsin enzyme (IC50?=?14.8?±?0.1?μM, Ki?=?16.4?μM), when compared with standard chymostatin (IC50?=?5.7?±?0.13?μM). Compounds 2–8, 15, 17, and 18 showed significant inhibitory activities. All the inhibitors were found to be competitive inhibitors, except compound 17, which was a mixed type inhibitor. The substituents (R) in para and ortho positions of phenyl ring B, apparently played a key role in the inhibitory potential of the series. Compounds 1–20 were also studied for their cytotoxicity profile by using 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells and compounds 3, 5, 6, 8, 12–14, 16, 17, 19, and 20 were found to be cytotoxic. Molecular docking was performed on the most active members of the series in comparison to the standard compound, chymostatin, to identify the most likely binding modes. The compounds reported here can serve as templates for further studies for new inhibitors of α-chymotrypsin and other chymotrypsin-like serine proteases enzymes.[Figure presented]

Earth abundant metals are much less expensive, promising, valuable metals and could be served as catalysts for the borrowing hydrogen reaction, dehydrogenation and heterocycles synthesis, instead of noble metals. The uniformly dispersed zinc composites were designed, synthesized and carefully characterized by means of XPS, EDS, TEM and XRD. The resulting zinc composite showed good catalytic activity for the N-alkylation of amines with amines, ketones with alcohols in water under base-free conditions, while unsaturated carbonyl compounds could also be synthesized by tuning the reaction conditions. Importantly, it was the first time to realize the synthesis of 2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives by using this zinc composite under green conditions. Meanwhile, this zinc catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for at least five times.

It is a challenging task to simultaneously achieve selective depolymerization and valorization of lignin due to their complex structure and relatively stable bonds. We herein report an efficient depolymerization strategy that employs 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) as oxidant/catalyst to selectively convert different oxidized lignin models to a wide variety of 2-phenylbenzimidazole-based compounds in up to 94 % yields, by reacting with o-phenylenediamines with varied substituents. This method could take full advantage of both Cβ and/or Cγ atom in lignin structure to furnish the desirable products instead of forming byproducts, thus exhibiting high atom economy. Furthermore, this strategy can effectively transform both the oxidized hardwood (birch) and softwood (pine) lignin into the corresponding degradation products in up to 45 wt% and 30 wt%, respectively. Through a “one-pot” process, we have successfully realized the oxidation/depolymerization/valorization of natural birch lignin at the same time and produced the benzimidazole derivatives in up to 67 wt% total yields.

Herein we report nickel-catalyzed sustainable synthesis of a few chosen five-membered fused nitrogen heterocycles such as benzimidazole, purine, benzothiazole, and benzoxazole via acceptorless dehydrogenative functionalization of alcohols. Using a bench stable, easy to prepare, and inexpensive Ni(ii)-catalyst, [Ni(MeTAA)] (1a), featuring a tetraaza macrocyclic ligand (tetramethyltetraaza[14]annulene (MeTAA)), a wide variety of polysubstituted benzimidazole, purine, benzothiazole, and benzoxazole derivatives were prepared via dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols with 1,2-diaminobenzene, 4,5-diaminopyrimidine, 2-aminothiphenol, and 2-aminophenol, respectively. A wide array of benzimidazoles were also prepared via a borrowing hydrogen approach involving alcohols as hydrogen donors and 2-nitroanilines as hydrogen acceptors. A few control experiments were performed to understand the reaction mechanism.

An efficient, environmental friendly and substrate controlled method of synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives 3 and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives 4 with high selectivity has been achieved from the reaction of o-phenylenediamine 1 and aldehydes 2 in the presence of water extract of onion and selecting suitable reaction medium. This method is widely applicable for variety of aldehydes such as aromatic/aliphatic/heterocyclic aldehydes and 1,2-diamines to afford 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives 3 and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives 4 in good to excellent yields (up to 96%). The developed method of water extract of onion catalysis produced 2-substituted benzimidazoles 3 from aromatic aldehydes having electron-withdrawing groups, whereas aromatic aldehydes bearing electron donating groups selectively furnished 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole 4 derivatives. The process described here has several advantages of cheap, low energy consumption, commercially available starting materials, operational simplicity and nontoxic catalyst. The use of water extract of onion makes this present methodology green and giving a useful contribution to the existing methods available for the preparation of benzimidazole derivatives. In addition, Hammett correlation of substituent constant (σ) vs percentage (%) yield has been established.

Herein, we present a metal-free visible-light-induced eosin-y-catalyzed deaminative strategy for the sequential alkylation/cyclization of N-methacryloyl-2-phenylbenzoimidazoles with alkyl amine-derived Katritzky salts, which provides an efficient avenue for the construction of various benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-6(5H)-one derivatives in moderate to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. The key enabling feature of this novel reaction includes utilization of redox-active pyridinium salts from abundant and inexpensive primary amine feedstocks that were converted into alkyl radicals via C-N bond scission and subsequent alkylation/cyclization with N-methacryloyl-2-phenylbenzoimidazoles by the formation of two new C-C bonds. In addition, we implemented this protocol for a variety of amino acids, affording the products in moderate yields. Moreover, the novel, environmentally benign batch protocol was further carried out in a continuous-flow regime by utilizing a perfluoroalkoxy alkane tubing microreactor under optimized reaction conditions with a blue light-emitting diode light source, enabling excellent yields and a shorter reaction time (19 min) versus the long reaction time (16 h) of the batch reaction. The reaction displays excellent functional group tolerance, easy operation, scalability, mild reaction conditions, and broad synthetic utility.

We report the tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide catalyzed oxidative coupling of amines and alcohols for the synthesis of imines under metal-free conditions by utilizing oxygen from air as the terminal oxidant. Under the same conditions, with ortho-phenylene diamines and 2-aminobenzenethiols the corresponding benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles were obtained. Quinoxalines were obtained from ortho-phenylene diamines and 1-phenylethane-1,2-diol, the conditions were then extended to the synthesis of quinoline building blocks by reaction of 2-amino benzyl alcohols either with 1-phenylethan-1-ol or acetophenone derivatives. The formation of C?N, C?S and C?C bonds was achieved under metal-free conditions. A broad range of amines (aromatic, aliphatic, cyclic and heteroaromatic) as well as benzylic alcohols including heteroaryl alcohols reacted smoothly and provided the desired products. The mild reaction conditions, commercially available catalyst, metal-free, good functional-group tolerance, broad range of products (imines, benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, quinoxalines and quinolines) and applicability at gram scale reactions are the advantages of the present strategy.

This study reports a straightforward heterogeneous catalytic (Al-MCM-41) approach to synthesize nitrogen heterocycle moieties from primary amines under solvent-free conditions. The Al-MCM-41 catalyst was prepared using a hydrothermal method and characterized by various analytical techniques. The probability and limitations of the catalytic methodology were presented with various substrates. The catalytic method grants an attractive route to a wide variety of benzimidazole and quinoxaline moieties with good to excellent yields. The gram scale reaction and reusability (up to five cycles) of the Al-MCM-41 catalyst would greatly benefit industrial applications. This journal is

A general and efficient method for the synthesis of quinazolinones, quinoxalinones, benzooxazinones, and benzothiazoles from the reactions of α-keto acids with 2-aminobenzamides, benzene-1,2-diamines, 2-aminophenols, and 2-aminobenzenethiols, respectively, is described. The reactions were conducted under catalyst-free conditions, using water as the sole solvent with no additive required, and successfully applied to the synthesis of sildenafil. More importantly, these reactions can be conducted on a mass scale, and the products can be easily purified through filtration and washing with ethanol (or crystallized).
