Abstract
One-pot three-component synthesis of benzimidazo[2,1-b]-quinazolin-1-ones was efficiently performed under microwave irradiation and solvent-free condition. The method provides some advantages such as low cost, experimental simplicity, high yields, and short reaction times. The structure of newly synthesized compounds is characterized by IR, 1H-NMR, MS and elemental analysis.
Keywords: One-pot synthesis, 2-amino benzimidazole, solvent-free reaction, catalyst-free reaction, benzimidazo[2, 1-b]- quinazolin-1-one, microwave synthesis.
