Highly Efficient and Ambient-Temperature Synthesis of Benzimidazoles via Co(III)/Co(II)-Mediated Redox Catalysis
An efficient method for ambient-temperature synthesis of a variety of 2-substituted and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles from aldehyde and phenylenediamine substrates has been developed by utilizing Co(III)/Co(II)-mediated redox catalysis. The combination of only 1 mol% of Co(acac)<sub>2</s...
