FORMATION OF DEOXYBENZOINS FROM 1, 3-DIMETHYL-2-(α-BENZYLOXYBENZYL)BENZIMIDAZOLIUM IODIDES THROUGH REARRANGEMENT FOLLOWED BY EXPULSION OF AZOLIUM YLIDE

Treatment of several 1, 3-dimethyl-2-(α-benzyloxybenzyl)benzimidazolium iodides 1 with K2CO3 gave deoxybenzoins 2 in moderate yields. Deoxybenzoins 2 were produced through rearrangement of benzyl groups followed by expulsion of 1, 3-dimethylbenzimidazolium ylide (4). The reaction is classified as a...

Zusammenfassung:Treatment of several 1, 3-dimethyl-2-(α-benzyloxybenzyl)benzimidazolium iodides 1 with K2CO3 gave deoxybenzoins 2 in moderate yields. Deoxybenzoins 2 were produced through rearrangement of benzyl groups followed by expulsion of 1, 3-dimethylbenzimidazolium ylide (4). The reaction is classified as a Witting rearrangement.
