phospho sulfonic acid (psa) synthesized as an environmentally safe and efficient solid acid catalyst, and it used for the synthesis of several 2-disubstituted benzimidazoles, 2-substituted benzoxazoles, and 2-substituted quinoxalines in ethanol as a green solvent at ambient temperature is described. (i) a very simple, green and efficient procedure for the synthesis of benzimidazole and also benz...

An efficient method has been developed for the catalysis of condensation of 1,2-phenylenediamines and 2-aminothiophenoles with different aldehydes into their corresponding 2-aryl-1H-benzimidazoles and 2-aryl-1H-benzothiazoles under mild condition. In this method, trans-3,5-dihydroperoxy-3,5-dimethyl-1,2-dioxolane (DHPDMDO)/HOAc/KI system was used as a novel and effective oxidant in water at roo...

Aerobic oxidative CH functionalization of primary aliphatic amines has been accomplished with a biomimetic cooperative catalytic system to furnish 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles that play an important role as drug discovery targets. This one-pot atom-economical multistep process, which proceeds under mild conditions, with ambient air and equimolar amounts of each coupling partner, constitute...

A strain of Trichostrongylus colubriformis from Nottingham Road, in Natal, was found to be solidly resistant to levamisole and morantel at the recommended dose levels. Untreated control sheep in fact harboured fewer worms at slaughter than either of the 2 treated groups. In contrast, the benzimidazoles and ivermectin were more than 99.9% effective against this worm strain. The possible implicat...

The title compound, C12H9N3, is an unhydrated analogue of the previously reported trihydrate. The mol-ecule is essentially planar, with a 3.62 (11)° angle between the pyridine and benzimidazole planes. In the crystal, N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds result in chains of mol-ecules parallel to [010], which are additionally linked by weak π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.7469 (17) Å...

In the title compound, C(15)H(20)N(2)O(3), the benzimidazole ring is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation from the mean plane of 0.012 (1) Å. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming centrosymmetric dimers, which are connected in the [100] direction through weak C-H⋯O contacts.

In the mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(21)H(18)N(2)O, the fused-ring system is essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.0121 (9) Å. The O atom and adjacent C atom are located in Wyckoff position 4e on a twofold axis (0, y, 1/4). The two benzyl groups are almost perpendicular to the benzimidazole plane, but point in opposite directions. The dihedral ang...

In the title compound, C(14)H(18)N(2)O, the benzimidazole grouping is close to planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.042 Å; the six-membered non-aromatic ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into infinite sheets lying parallel to the bc plane by O-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

In the title compound, C(16)H(16)N(2)O(3), the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the aromatic ring systems is 30.90 (15)°. In the crystal structure, the mol-ecules form [010] chains by way of N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds.
