Solvent- and catalyst-free synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles

Abstract

Reactions of acyclic ketones and o-phenylenediamines under solvent- and catalyst-free conditions have been developed for the preparation of dihydrobenzimidazoles. This method can also be used for the synthesis of other heterocyclic compounds such as dihydrobenzothiazoles and perimidines.
