Abstract

A simple and efficient protocol for preparing benzimidazoles via Fe(NO3)3 · 9H2O-catalyzed aerobic oxidation reaction of imine derivatives with o-phenylenediamine. This process uses air as an economical and green oxidant, tolerates a wide range of substrates, and affords the targeted benzimidazoles in moderate to excellent yields.
