Trimethylsilyl Chloride Catalyzed Synthesis of Substituted Benzimidazoles Using Two Phase System Under Microwave Conditions, and Their Antimicrobial Studies

Abstract: A convenient method using TMSCl (20 mol %) and microwave-induced technique for the synthesis of various benzimidazole is described. This has reduced the reaction time drastically as well as improved the yield when compared to conventional heating. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities against four strains each. Preliminary results indicated that, compounds 3e, 3f, 3g, 3k, 3m, 3n and 3o demonstrated very good antimicrobial activity, comparable to the… Show more

“…1 5-Nitrobenzimidazole (2a). 44 4-Nitro-1,2-phenylendiamine (1.784 g, 11.65 mmol) and 40 mL of formic acid were added to a 100 mL flask and refluxed at 110 °C for 4 h, giving a green solution. The mixture was cooled to 0 °C, and the product was precipitated by neutralization with concentrated ammonia.…”

“…This confirms the hypothesis that there is a direct relationship between the antifungal activity and the electron withdrawing effect of substituents. Compound 5 (5-Br) was active against the selected strains with MIC equivalent to half that exhibited by amphotericin B [31].…”

“…[38][39] However, Microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) continues to affect synthetic chemistry significantly by enabling rapid, reproducible experiments. [40][41][42][43] Particularly, the use of milder reagents has improved both the yield and purity of this reaction. [44][45] Today, cancer patients are being treated with radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgical interventions.…”
