Introduction of a new synthetic route about 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole

The synthetic route of 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.

Synthetic Route of 583-39-1, In the next few decades, the world population will flourish. As the population grows rapidly and people all over the world use more and more resources, all industries must consider their environmental impact. 583-39-1, name is 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole belongs to imidazoles-derivatives compound, it is a common compound, a new synthetic route is introduced below.

General procedure: Benzyl chloride or 1-iodopropane, 89.25 mmol, and potassium carbonate, 170.0 mmol, were added to a solution of 85.0 mmol of 1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazole-2-thione in 140 mL of acetone. The mixture was refluxed for 3 h with stirring and poured into water with stirring to dissolve inorganic com-ponents. The precipitate was filtered off and washed with water and methanol. Compound 1b was dried and recrystallized from 20 mL of methanol. Compound 1a required no additional purification. Compound 1a. Yield 93%, colorless crystals, mp 180-181C. 1 H NMR spectrum, delta, ppm: 4.56 s (2H, CH 2 ), 7.07 t (2H, H arom , J = 4.0 Hz), 7.21 t (1H, H arom , J = 6.8 Hz), 7.28 t (2H, H arom , J = 7.2 Hz), 7.35-7.45 m (4H, H arom ), 12.04 br.s (1H, NH). Compound 1b. Yield 55%, colorless crystals, mp 151-152C. 1 H NMR spectrum, delta, ppm: 1.07 t (3H, CH 3 , J = 7.2 Hz), 1.80 sext (2H, CH 2 , J = 6.8 Hz), 3.25 t (2H, CH 2 , J = 7.2 Hz), 7.05 s (2H, H arom ), 7.37 s (1H, H arom ), 12.27 s (1H, NH).

The synthetic route of 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
