A common heterocyclic compound, 15788-16-6, name is 1H-Benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylic acid, molecular formula is C8H6N2O2, 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. 15788-16-6.
Preparation 26 Methyl 5-benzimidazolecarboxylate A mixture of 10 g of 5-benzimidazolecarboxylic acid, 150 ml of methanol and 100 ml of a 4N solution of hydrogen chloride in 1,4-dioxane was agitated ultrasonically for 4 hours. At the end of this time, the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, after which 300 ml of methanol and 3.5 g of lithium borohydride were added to the residue and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The solvent was then removed by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residue was mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride, after which it was extracted with ethyl acetate. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, to give 5.44 g of the title compound, melting at 136-138 C.
The synthetic route of 1H-Benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylic acid has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
