Nitroethane → 1-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxidobenzimidazol-3-ium

関与物質

反応手順

In the typical procedure, 0.1 mole of benzofurazan 1-oxide and 0.12 mole of nitroethane is dissolved at 100 ml. of tetrahydrofuran. To this mixture there is added at room temperature, 0.12 mole of diethylamine over a period of 0.5 hour. An instantaneous exothermic reaction is observed (40° C.) and within one hour, the product crystallizes from the solution. The solution is allowed to stand overnight at room temperature and filtered to yield 9.6 grams of 2-methyl-1-hydroxy-1-H-benzimidazole 3-oxide (Table I, Example 2). The product can be rectystallized from methanol.
