Compounds 2, 3 and 4 were synthesized and the crystal and molecular structures of 1 and 4 were determined. An hptlc technique for studying the methylation rate of 1 and the oxidation rate of 2 was applied.
A number of benzenesulfonyl derivatives of benzoimidazol‐2‐ylamine and 1‐methyl‐benzoimidazol‐2‐ylamine were synthesized, their synthesis reactions under different experimental conditions being monitored by hptlc. The crystal and molecular structures of N‐(1‐benzenesulfonyl‐1,3‐dihydrobenzoimidazol‐2‐ylidene)benzenesulfonamide (4) and N‐(1‐benzenesulfonyl‐3‐methyl‐1,3‐dihydro‐benzoimidazol‐2‐ylidene)‐benzenesulfonamide (7) were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis. The structure of compound 4 is made up of two crystallographically independent molecules and that of compound 7 of one molecule. In both cases, the structure contains the imido form of the molecules. There are strong conjugative effects between the imido groups and the imidazolic rings. Weak intramolecular CH···O hydrogen bonding interactions could influence the molecular conformations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
