Catalyst-free synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles in aqueous media using oxygen as the oxidant

Synthesis of 1, 2-disubstituted benzimidazoles by reaction of N-substituted benzene-1,2-diamine with different aldehydes was developed. This greener procedure proceeds with the help of oxygen in water at 60oC. The advantages of proposed method are catalyst-free conditions in water, short reaction ti...
