Herein, a bulky Lewis acid-functionalized ligand incorporated into a water-tolerant metal-organic framework (MOF), named SION-105 and employing Lewis basic diamine substrates for the in situ formation of FLPs within the MOF. Using CO2 as a C1-feedstock, this combination allowed for the efficient transformation of a variety of diamine substrates into benzimidazoles. SION-105 could be easily recycled by washing with MeOH and reused multiple times without losing its identity and catalytic activity, highlighting the advantage of the MOF approach in FLP chem. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 7-Methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (cas: 4887-83-6Category: imidazoles-derivatives).
7-Methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (cas: 4887-83-6) belongs to imidazole derivatives. Imidazole is a heterocyclic compound with a five-membered planar ring. It is amphoteric and highly polar. Imidazole is incorporated into many important biological compounds. The most pervasive is the amino acid histidine, which has an imidazole side-chain. Histidine is present in many proteins and enzymes, e.g. by binding metal cofactors, as seen in hemoglobin.Category: imidazoles-derivatives
