While primary aliphatic amines are ubiquitous in natural products, they are traditionally
considered inert to substitution chemistry. This review highlights historical and recent …

Establishing tandem catalytic synthetic strategies based on the use of readily available,
stable, and renewable feedstocks is of great significant for the sustainable advancement of …

Benzimidazole is an aromatic bicyclic heterocycle that is regarded as a valuable privileged
scaffold in medicinal chemistry. Many marketed drugs and natural products containing …

A mild strategy for visible-light-induced synthesis of benzimidazoles was developed using
aromatic aldehydes and o-phenylenediamines as substrates. The use of an organic dye …

An efficient method was developed for the synthesis of primary amines either from the
hydrogenation of nitriles or reductive amination of carbonyl compounds. The reactions were …

A metal–organic framework [MIL-101 (Cr)] was used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst
in the synthesis of benzoazoles (benzimidazole, benzothiazole, and benzoxazole), and …

This study reports a straightforward heterogeneous catalytic (Al-MCM-41) approach to
synthesize nitrogen heterocycle moieties from primary amines under solvent-free conditions …

A one‐pot and efficient catalytic protocol has been developed to synthesize
pharmaceutically critical 2‐substituted benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles using magnetite …

We report herein our mechanistic studies of the ortho-quinone-catalyzed aerobic oxidation
of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. Two different catalytic pathways were discovered …

Benzimidazole is an important heterocycle that is widely researched and utilized by the
pharmaceutical industry and is one of the five most commonly used five-membered aromatic …
