Abstract

2-Substituted benzimidazoles are selectively synthesised in high yields via the condensation of o-phenylenediamine derivatives with aldehyde derivatives using catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid coated natural phosphate (NP/PTSA) under mild conditions. The use of NP/PTSA as a reusable catalyst makes this process simple, convenient, and environmentally friendly.
