These common heterocyclic compound, 20034-02-0, name is (6-Methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methanol, its traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route. Formula: C9H10N2O
General procedure: One of compounds 4a-4f (5 mmol) was dissolved in THF (25 mL) and DCC (1.24 g, 6 mmol), and DMAP (0.12 g, 1 mmol) was slowly added and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. Compounds 2a-2c (5 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred for 7-9 h. The by-product, N,N’-dicyclohexylurea, was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuum to give a solid which was dissolved in CH2Cl2 and the product 5a-5n was filtered off.
The synthetic route of (6-Methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methanol has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
