Abstract

In contrast to 1-amino- and 1-alkylaminobenzimidazoles, 1-di-alkylaminobenzimidazoles are metallated by n-butyl-lithium in absolute either at the 2-position. The subsequent treatment of the lithium derivatives by electrophilic reagents, in which role benzophenone and iodine were used, leads to the formation of the corresponding 2-R-1-dialkylaminobenzimidazoles, which are difficult to obtain by other methods. The possibility was studied of using the N-dialkylamino group as a protective function.
