Abstract
Electrophilic substitution reactions in the furylvinylbenzimidazole series were studied. In nitration, sulfonation, bromination, acylation, formylation, and hydroxymethylation reactions, the substituent enters at the α-position of the furan ring. The presence of a vinylene group reduces the influence of the benzimidazole fragment on the furan ring, and therefore the reactions in the latter proceed considerably more rapidly and under milder conditions than in the case of furylbenzimidazole. Calculated data are given for the π-electronic density on the carbon atoms of furyl-vinylbenzimidazole, obtained by the CNDO method.
