[Diaquo{bis(p-hydroxybenzoato-κ1O1)}(1-methylimidazole- κ1N1)}copper(II)]: Synthesis, crystal structure, catalytic activity and DFT study

Metal-organic hybrid complexes often exhibit large surface area, pore volume, fascinating structures and potential applications including catalytic applications. Hence a new metal-organic hybrid complex [Diaquo{bis(p-hydroxybenzoato-κ1O1)}(1-methylimidazole- κ1N1)}copper(II)] was synthesized using conventional method. Physico-chemical characterization of the complex was performed with FTIR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction, TGA, EPR and FESEM. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study suggests it to be three dimensional with space group P212121 (orthorhombic). The crystal achieves its three-dimensional structure and stability through extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Hirshfeld surface analysis, catalytic activity and DFT study of the complex was also performed. The synthesized complex acts as good catalyst in benzimidazole synthesis with good recyclability as catalyst up to 5th run.

Solvent-dependent metal-free chemoselective synthesis of benzimidazoles and 1,3,5-triarylbenzenes from 2-amino anilines and aryl alkyl ketones catalyzed by I2

A solvent-dependent I2-catalyzed chemoselective reaction was developed for the synthesis of benzimidazoles and 1,3,5-triarylbenzenes via the annulation of 2-amino anilines and aryl alkyl ketones or the cyclization of aryl alkyl ketones, respectively. With 1,4-dioxane as the solvent, sequential C[sbnd]N bond formation followed by C(CO)-C(CH3) bond cleavage leads to the formation of benzimidazoles in a highly selective manner while aldol-type self-condensation of aryl alkyl ketones predominates using PhNO2 or PhCl as the solvent to afford 1,3,5-triarylbenzenes.

Ionic-Liquid-Catalyzed Synthesis of Imines, Benzimidazoles, Benzothiazoles, Quinoxalines and Quinolines through C?N, C?S, and C?C Bond Formation

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.

Functional POM-catalyst for selective oxidative dehydrogenative couplings under aerobic conditions

Development of selective and efficient reusable catalytic systems for sustainable chemical production under benign conditions is attractive and received much attention. Herein, we report a rod-shaped octadecyl trimethylammonium functionalized Keggin-type polyoxometalate [PMO12O40] hybrids (OTA-POM) as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for selective oxidative dehydrogenative couplings under aerobic conditions without any additive or external base. The catalyst recovery and subsequent five successive recyclability studies of hybrid POM confirms the heterogeneous nature of present catalytic system.

Visible-Light Photoredox Catalyzed Double C-H Functionalization: Radical Cascade Cyclization of Ethers with Benzimidazole-Based Cyanamides

A visible-light photoredox catalyzed radical cascade cyclization of simple ethers with cyanamides is developed at room temperature. This strategy involves sequential inert Csp3-H/Csp2-H functionalizations through intermolecular addition reaction of oxyalkyl radicals to N-cyano groups followed by radical cyclization of iminyl radicals in situ generated with C-2 aryl rings. This method allows for efficient synthesis of tetracyclic benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazolines. Importantly, this is the first example of an intermolecular-intramolecular radical cascade cyclization reaction of cyanamides.

Copper-catalyzed radical cascade cyclization for synthesis of CF3-containing tetracyclic benzimidazo[2,1-: A] iso-quinolin-6(5 H)-ones

Synthesis of sulfonylated benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-6(5H)-ones via I2O5-induced radical relay addition/cyclization of activated alkenes with sulfonylhydrazides

A facile I2O5 induced radical relay addition/cyclization of activated alkenes with sulfonylhydrazides has been successfully developed, leading to a broad range of sulfonylated benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-6(5H)-ones in moderate to good yields. The protocol has advantages of a metal-, base-, acid-, peroxide-free process, simple operation, and broad functional group tolerance.

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.

Nickel catalysed construction of benzazoles: Via hydrogen atom transfer reactions

Herein we report a homogeneous, phosphine free, inexpensive nickel catalyst that forms a wide variety of benzazoles from alcohol and diamines by a reaction sequence of alcohol oxidation, imine formation, ring cyclization and dehydrogenative aromatization. A reversible azo/hydrazo couple, that is part of the ligand architecture steers both the alcohol oxidation and dehydrogenation of the annulated amine under fairly mild reaction conditions. Interestingly, both the alcohol oxidation and amine dehydrogenation steps are directly mediated by hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), which is greatly facilitated by the reduced ligand backbone. The kH/kD for the amine dehydrogenation step, measured at 60 °C is 5.9, fully consistent with HAT as the rate determining factor during this step. This is a unique scenario where two consecutive oxidation steps towards benzazole formation undergo HAT, which has been substantiated via kinetic studies, KIE determination and intermediate isolation.
