Formation of benzimidazoles at high pressure
Abstract
Benzimidazoles containing bulky 2-substituents, e.g. adamantyl and t-butyl, have been synthesized by condensation of o-phenylenediamines with carboxylic acids at hydrostatic pressures of up to 8 kbar. Attempts to make the analogous benzothiazoles and benzoxazoles at high pressures were unsuccessful, but an alternative synthesis was devised. A novel diazepinone (18) is reported.
