Popov, I. I. published the artcileStudy of unsaturated azole derivatives. VII. Novel syntheses of 2-vinylbenzimidazoles, Name: 2-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, the publication is Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii (1978), 1104-7, database is CAplus.
Vinylbenzimidazole I (R = H, R1 = H, Me; R = Me, MeO, NO2, R1 = Me) were obtained in 50-90% yields in 3 steps from II (R = H, NO2) by cyclocondensation with ClCH2CO2H or from III (R = H, Me, MeO, R1 = Me, R2 = CH2OH) by chlorination with SOCl2 to give III (R = CH2Cl) which were treated with Ph3P to give 62-94% triphenylphosphonium chloride which were condensed with CH2O via a Wittig reaction.
Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii published new progress about 4760-35-4. 4760-35-4 belongs to imidazoles-derivatives, auxiliary class Chloride,Benzimidazole, name is 2-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, and the molecular formula is C9H9ClN2, Name: 2-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole.
