Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole (0.06M, 9 g) in methanol (50 ml) was added sodium hydroxide (0.06M, 2.4 g) and stirred for 30 min. to get a clear solution. To this solution, phenacyl bromide (0.05M, 10 g) was added slowly and stirred until the solid separates. The solid was filtered and washed thoroughly with 5% sodium hydroxide solution and methanol to get white solid (11.2 g). M.P. 167° C. NMR (DMSO): δ5.1(s, 2H, CH2), 7-8.2(m, 10H, Aromatic).
