AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for synthesizing substituted benzimidazole derivatives have low product purity and yield, making industrial-scale production difficult.

Method used

Using composite catalysts Fe/Na2B4O7, Fe/B2O3, Na2SO3/Na2B4O7, Na2SO3/B2O3, SnCl2/Na2B4O7, or SnCl2/B2O3, substituted benzimidazole derivatives are synthesized via a melt method by reacting with o-phenylenediamine and haloaromatic acids at high temperature under inert gas protection. This avoids the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine and promotes the closure of the imidazole ring.

Benefits of technology

It significantly improves the yield of substituted benzimidazole derivatives to over 95% and the purity to over 99%, simplifies the process, is environmentally friendly, and is suitable for industrial production.

Abstract

The application discloses a composite catalyst and application thereof in synthesis of substituted benzimidazole derivatives, and belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The composite catalyst is one or several of Fe / Na2B4O7, Fe / B2O3, Na2SO3 / Na2B4O7, Na2SO3 / B2O3, SnCl2 / Na2B4O7 or SnCl2 / B2O3. The composite catalyst is applied to the synthesis of substituted benzimidazole derivatives by a melting method, so that the yield of a crude product can be obviously improved to more than 95 %, and the purity of the purified substituted benzimidazole derivatives can reach more than 99 %, so that the substituted benzimidazole derivatives can be prepared at a high yield and high purity.
