Abstract

β-Bromo-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and 2-bromobenzaldehydes react with 4,7-dimethoxy-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-amine by microwave irradiation in dimethylformamide in the presence of a base to give the corresponding dimethoxy-substituted benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines and benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]quinazolines, respectively, in moderate to good yields. Oxidation of such N-fused hybrid scaffolds by aqueous ceric ammonium nitrate affords pyrimidine- and quinazoline-fused benzimidazole-4,7-diones in high yields.
