Usage

General Description

2-Nonylbenzimidazole is a chemical compound that is used as a UV filter in sunscreens and other cosmetic products. It is an organic compound with the molecular formula C20H27N2, and it functions by absorbing and reflecting UV radiation to protect the skin from damage. 2-Nonylbenzimidazole is effective at blocking both UVA and UVB rays, making it a popular ingredient in many sunscreen formulations. However, there are concerns about its potential to disrupt hormonal balance and its persistence in the environment, which has led to some controversy surrounding its use in personal care products. Despite this, it remains a common ingredient in many sunscreens and cosmetic products.

A heterogeneous catalytic strategy for facile production of benzimidazoles and quinoxalines from primary amines using the Al-MCM-41 catalyst

This study reports a straightforward heterogeneous catalytic (Al-MCM-41) approach to synthesize nitrogen heterocycle moieties from primary amines under solvent-free conditions. The Al-MCM-41 catalyst was prepared using a hydrothermal method and characterized by various analytical techniques. The probability and limitations of the catalytic methodology were presented with various substrates. The catalytic method grants an attractive route to a wide variety of benzimidazole and quinoxaline moieties with good to excellent yields. The gram scale reaction and reusability (up to five cycles) of the Al-MCM-41 catalyst would greatly benefit industrial applications. This journal is

Synthesis and tuberculostatic activity evaluation of novel benzazoles with alkyl, cycloalkyl or pyridine moiety

Compounds possessing benzimidazole system exhibit significant antituberculous activity. In order to examine how structure modifications affect tuberculostatic activity, a series of benzazole derivatives were synthesized and screened for their antitubercul

Acceptorless dehydrogenative synthesis of benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles from alcohols or aldehydes by heterogeneous Pt catalysts under neutral conditions

Abstract Pt/Al2O3 and Pt/TiO2 were effective catalysts for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles from 2-aminothiophenol and 1,2-phenylenediamine with alcohols or aldehydes under acceptor-free and additive-free conditions.
