摘要: An efficient environmentally benign route for the synthesis of benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinoline has been developed by reacting 2-ethynylbenzaldehyde and related substituted alkynylbenzaldehydes with variously ortho-phenylenediamines aliphatic amines in ethanol. This method provides a convenient, room temperature, atom-economical, catalyst-free access to diversely isoquinoline fused benzimidazoles. Regioselectivity reaction, as referred o-phenylenediamines, was confirmed X-ray crystallography. The reaction found occur three major steps (imine formations, cyclization, aromatization) mechanism proposed.
