Brief introduction of C7H6N2O

Statistics shows that 2-Hydroxybenzimidazole is playing an increasingly important role. we look forward to future research findings about 615-16-7.

Reference of 615-16-7, These common heterocyclic compound, 615-16-7, name is 2-Hydroxybenzimidazole, 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.

To a solution of benzimidazole-2-one (Aldrich, 1.1 g, 7.5 mmol) in DMF (20 ml) was added 3,6-dichlorobenzoisoxazole (1.5 g, 7.5 mmol) and Cs2CO3 (4.8 g, 15 mmol). The suspension was heated to 15O0C in an oil bath and stirred overnight. The mixture was then cooled to room temperature, diluted with water (30 ml) and stirred in a ice bath for 2 hours. The mixture was then filtered. The solid was washed with water and dried under high vacuum to obtain 2.0 g (93%) of a yellow solid as l-(6-chlorobenzisoxazol-3-yl)benzimidazole-2-one. To a solution of the above product (1.0 g, 3.5 mmol) in DMF (15 ml) was added NaOMe solution in methanol (30% wt/wt, 10 ml). The mixture was heated to 8O0C under vacuum to remove residual methanol and then stirred at 11O0C under nitrogen overnight. The mixture was then cooled to room temperature, diluted with water (50 ml), adjusted to pH 6 with 10% aqueous HCl. The resulting suspension was stirred in an ice bath for 2 hours and filtered. The solid was washed with water and dried in an oven (900C) for 2 hours and then under high vacuum at room temperature for 3 hours to obtain a slightly yellow solid. LC-MS m/e: (M+ 1) = 282

Statistics shows that 2-Hydroxybenzimidazole is playing an increasingly important role. we look forward to future research findings about 615-16-7.
