Electric Literature of 4857-06-1, The chemical industry reduces the impact on the environment during synthesis 4857-06-1, name is 2-Chloro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, I believe this compound will play a more active role in future production and life.
General procedure: To a stirred solution of 1c (1.0 eq.) and POCl3 (10 eq.) was addeda few drops of conc. HCl. The reaction mixture was heated to 150 C and stirred for 3 h. After the reaction was completed, the reaction mixture was poured into ice water, neutralized with 1 N aq. NaOH and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to givecrude product 1d. Alternatively, to a stirred mixture of 2-chlorobenzimidazole (1.0 eq.) and R3CH2Br (1.0 eq.) in dimethylformamide was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine (1.5 eq.). The reaction mixture was heated to 110 C and stirred for 12 h. After the reaction was completed, the reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane) to give desired product 1d.
In the field of chemistry, the synthetic routes of compounds are constantly being developed and updated. I will also mention this compound in other articles, 2-Chloro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, other downstream synthetic routes, hurry up and to see.
