title: Synthesis of some new heterocyclic systems derived from 2-acetylbenzimidazole.
abstract: The named compound was reacted with thiosemicarbazide and/or semicarbazide to produce the corresponding condensation products II and V respectively. Reaction of II with chloroacetic acid in ethanol containing anhydrous sodium acetate yielded III. Condensation of III with aromatic aldehydes yielded the corresponding arylidene derivatives (IV). Oxidation of the semicarbazone V with selenium dioxide gave 2-(1,2,3-selenadiazole-4-yl)benzimidazole (VIa, b) while with thionyl chloride it gave 2-(1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-yl)benzimidazole (VIIa, b). The chalcones of 2-acetyl and/or 1-methyl-2-acetylbenzimidazole were condensed with hydrazine hydrate, phenylhydrazine and/or hydroxylamine to produce 2-(5-aryl-1(H)-pyrazolin-3-yl)-, 2-(5-aryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-3-yl)- and 2-(5-aryl-2-isoxazolin-3-yl)benzimidazole (IX, X, XI) respectively.
