Embodiment 1
[0162] Several condensation reactions between 1,2-phenylenediamine (OPD) and DL-mandelic acid yielded (1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)(phenyl)methanol at about 30 to about 35 wt% The active material is carried out at 100-110° C. for about 6 to about 8 hours. The effects of various additives (such as high-temperature stable catalysts and co-solvents) on the homogeneity of the reaction were studied, and are listed in Table 1.

[0165] *HEG-Cl=hexaethyleneguanidine chloride
[0166] **Ambient temperature
Embodiment 2
[0168] Several experiments were performed using about 5 wt% sulfolane and about 3 wt% acetic acid in the work-up step. The results of HPLC analysis are shown in Table 2. The results clearly show that the reduction in residual OPD concentration is less than about 0.1 wt%, and the resulting material complies with regulations. Active substance refers to the weight percent concentration of OPD and DL-mandelic acid at the beginning of the reaction.
[0169] Charge methanesulfonic acid, sulfolane, and water into a round bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, reflux condenser, and temperature probe. DL-mandelic acid (1 equivalent) and 1,2-phenylenediamine (1 equivalent) were added thereto, and the contents of the flask were refluxed at about 100-110° C. for about 6-8 hours. After the reaction was complete, glacial acetic acid (3 wt%) was added and reflux was maintained for about another 1-3 hours. After work-up, additional water was added to adjust the active substance to ...

[0172] Example 3: Synthesis of 1H-benzo [d] imidazol-2-yl) (phenyl) methanol
[0173]
[0174] Charge methanesulfonic acid, sulfolane, and water into a flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, reflux condenser, and temperature probe. To this was added o-phenylenediamine (about 12.96 g, 1 equiv) and DL-mandelic acid (about 19.15, 1.05 equiv), and the contents of the flask were refluxed at about 110°C. After about 8 hours of reflux, about 3 g of acetic acid was added and the reflux was maintained for about 3 hours to obtain the title compound in about 97% yield.
