Synthesis of 3,1,5-benzoxadiazepines from the condensation of o-phenylenediamine (o-PDA) and acyl chlorides in the presence of a catalytic amount of various heteropolyacids (HPAs) is reported.

A water soluble, Bronsted acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid as an efficient organocatalyst was used for the synthesis of physiologically active 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives from o-phenylenediamine and aromatic aldehydes in ethanol at reflux condition. Cost-effectiveness, use of non-hazardous solvents, metal free and commercially available catalyst, single-step, environmentally fri...

The N,N'-dimesitylene substituted o-phenylenediamine 1 reacts with Sn[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) under formation of the monomeric N-heterocyclic stannylene 2, while the chiral N,N'-substituted o-phenylenediamine 3 reacts with E[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) (E = Ge, Sn) under formation of the chiral germylene 4 and the chiral stannylene 5, respectively. X-Ray diffraction studies with both stannylenes demonstrated t...

Benzoic acid and o-phenylenediamine efficiently reacted under the green solvent-free Ball Milling method. Several reaction parameters were investigated such as rotation frequency; milling balls weight and milling time. The optimum reaction condition was milling with 56.6 g weight of balls at 20 Hz frequency for one hour milling time. The study was extended for synthesis of a series of benzimida...

2-Aminobenzylaniline was ditosylated and gave an unexpected product N,N-ditosylamino-2-benzylaminobenzene in which the primary amine had ditosylated, benzylamine unreacted. The benzylamine, although more electron rich, is sterically crowded less nucleophilic than this system. Sterically tosylamides were prepared by reacting o-phenylenediamine, p-phenylenediamine 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with tosy...

This paper reports the synthesis of nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds such as quinoxalines (5-7), imidazoles (8, 9,10,11), aminothiazole (12), aminooxazole (13), aminoimidazole (14) and benzothiazine (17) from the reaction with unsymmetrical diketone 4, 3 and 4a respectively. The aforementioned compounds with 4-pyridyl,4fluorophenyl groups have different positions in their ring skeleto...

A simple, fast, efficient and environmentally friendly method for synthesis of benzimidazole and its 2-alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl substituted derivatives was developed using zeolite HY. Two component cyclolcondensation of 1,2-phenylenediamine (o-phenylenediamine) and commercially available carboxylic acids catalyzed by zeolite HY without any solvent, under microwave irradiation led to formation...
