2-(Cyanomethyl)benzimidazole Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

LIGHT BEIGE FINE CRYSTALLINE POWDER

Uses

2-Benzimidazoleacetonitrile, is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. It is also used as an intermediate in organic synthesis.

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous route. Seealso NITRILES. When heated to decomposition it emitstoxic fumes of NOx.

Synthesis

Ethyl cyanoacetate

105-56-6

o-Phenylenediamine

95-54-5

2-(Cyanomethyl)benzimidazole

4414-88-4

To the dry solid of o-phenylenediamine (1.08 g, 10 mmol) was added ethyl cyanoacetate (1.13 g, 10 mmol). The reaction mixture was placed in an oil bath and heated at 120 °C for 30 min, followed by cooling to room temperature. Upon completion of the reaction, the product was collected by filtration and ground with diethyl ether for purification. Finally, recrystallization was carried out from ethanol to give 2-cyanomethylbenzimidazole.
