1-Tosyl-6-vinyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-amine

Research output: Contribution to a Journal (Peer & Non Peer)Articlepeer-review

Abstract

The alkene functionalised 2-aminobenzimidazole ring found in terrazoanthine natural products was synthesized in 3 steps from 1,2-epoxy-4-vinylcyclohexane via epoxide ring opening with toluenesulphonamide yielding 2 regioisomeric, separable amino alcohols. One isomer was oxidized to the corresponding ketone and subsequently condensed with cyanamide to furnish the title compound, which was characterized by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy.
