Abstract

Abstract : A new, convenient and efficient AgNO3 ‐catalyzed strategy for the preparation of 2‐(benzo[ d ]azol‐2‐yl)phenol derivatives in good to excellent yields (63–98%) is described. The reaction proceeds via condensation/intramolecular nucleophilic addition/oxidation process between substituted salicylaldehydes and 2‐aminothiophenol, 2‐aminophenol or benzene‐1, 2‐diamine under mild reaction conditions. Notably, this reaction utilizes cheap AgNO3 as a readily available and low‐cost benign oxidant at low catalyst loadings with excellent functional group tolerance.
