Abstract
magnified image Synthesis of a series of 2‐substituted benzimidazoles was carried out for screening anti‐inflammatory activities. 2‐(N‐benzylpyrrolyl)‐benzimidazoles 9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 9h, 9i, 9j, 9k were synthesized from N‐benzyl‐2‐pyrrole carboxylic acids 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d and 4‐substituted‐1,2‐phenylenediamines by cyclocondensation utilizing polyphosphoric acid (PPA) as condensing agent. The N‐benzyl‐2‐pyrrole carboxylic acids were prepared by standard method of N‐benzylation of 2‐pyrrole carboxylate using NaH/DMF and appropriately substituted benzyl halides followed by alkaline hydrolysis.
