An atom-economic synthetic route to benzimidazolium salts is presented. The annulated polycyclic systems: 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium chloride (1-Cl), 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium chloride (2-Cl), 1,3-diphenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium chloride (3-Cl), and 1,3-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium chloride (4-Cl) were prepared in a t...

In this protocol, 3-(2-carboxybenzoyl)-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride [Cbmim]Cl and sulfonic acid functionalized pyridinium chloride [pyridine-SO3H]Cl as a new, reusable, and green Brønsted acidic ionic liquid (BAIL) catalyst were synthesized and successfully used for the one-pot ring opening of epoxide with sodium azide (NaN3) in water at room temperature. Epoxides under ring-opening easi...

In the anion of the title hydrated mol-ecular salt, C4H8N3O(+)·C12H9N4O7 (-)·H2O [systematic name: 2-amino-1-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-di-hydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium 5-(2,4-di-nitro-phen-yl)-1,3-dimethyl-2,6-dioxo-1,2,3,6-tetra-hydro-pyrimidin-4-olate monohydrate], the 2,4-di-nitro-phenyl ring is inclined to the mean plane of the pyrimidine ring [r.m.s. deviation = 0.37 Å] by 43.24 (8)°. The five-membered r...

easily synthesized1-methyl-3-(2-oxyethyl)-1h-imidazol-3-ium-borate sulfonic acid {[moei]-bsa} as a novel catalyst efficiently promoted the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives via condensation of various diamines with 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds at room temperature conditions in ethanol. this research provides a new method for the synthesis of quinoxalines in good to excellent yields with little c...

In the title compound, C(12)H(12)N(3) (+)·PF(6) (-), the hexa-fluoro-phosphate anion is disordered over two orientations with refined site occupancies of 0.8071 (17) and 0.1929 (17). The dihedral angle between the imidazole and benzene rings in the cation is 71.26 (7)°. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by C-H⋯F and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.
