Procedure

To a stirred solution of tin (II) chloride dihydrate (4.7 g) in concentrated hydrochloric acid (15 ml) was added 1,2-dimethyl-6-nitro-1H-benzimidazole (1 g) (J. Chem. Soc., 1931, 1143-1153), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h. The mixture was poured onto ice and chloroform, and basified to pH 10 by the addition of 10M sodium hydroxide solution. The mixture was extracted several times with chloroform and the combined organic extracts dried and concentrated in vacuo to give a brown solid. This was crystallised from ethanol to give the title compound.
