Straightforward synthesis of novel 1-(2'-α-O-D-glucopyranosyl ethyl) 2-arylbenzimidazoles by Arumugam, Natarajan, Abdul Rahim, Aisyah Saad, Abd Hamid, Shafida, Osman, Hasnah

“…The reduction and cyclocondensation steps for the aglycone synthesis proceeded efficiently under microwave irradiation to afford the appropriate benzimidazoles in excellent yields within 2-3 min. Glycosylation of the hydroxyethyl aglycones with the perbenzylated 1-hydroxy- glucopyranose, pretreated with the Appel-Lee reagent, followed by catalytic hydrogenolysis delivered the desired 1-(2'-α-O-D-glucopyranosyl ethyl) 2-aryl-benzimidazoles in a simple and straightforward manner.…”
