The document describes the synthesis of benzimidazole from orthophenylene diamine (OPD). Orthophenylene diamine and formic acid are heated together in a condensation reaction to form benzimidazole. The theoretical yield of benzimidazole is calculated and the practical yield is measured to be 98.64% with a melting point of 170-175°C. Benzimidazole is then characterized.

- 4. Benzimidazole is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound. This bicyclic compound consists of the fusion of benzene and imidazole. It is a colorless solid. Benzimidazoles are often bioactive. Many anthelmintic drugs (albendazole, mebendazole, triclabendazole etc.) Belong to the benzimidazole class of compounds. Benzimidazole fungicides are commercialized. They act by binding to the fungal microtubules and stopping hyphal growth. It also binds to the spindle microtubules and blocks nuclear division. B e n z i m i d a z o l
- 5. Aim:- To prepare a & submit Benzimidazole from o-phenylenediamine. Requirement:- Apparatus:- Round bottom flask, Beaker, Measuring cylinder, Water bath, Buchner funnel. Chemicals:- O-phenylenediamine, Formic acid (90 %), NaOH (10%). Principle:- The synthesis Benzimidazole is affected by simply heating the o-phenylenediamine & formic acid together (condensation type of reaction).
- 6. Place 2.7gm of the o-phenylenediamine in a round bottomed flask of 250 ml & add 1.6 gm (16ml) of 90 % formic acid. Heat the mixture on a water bath at 1000C for 2 hr. Cool & add 10 % sodium hydroxide solution slowly, with constant rotation of the flask, until the mixture is just alkaline to litmus. Filter off the synthesized crude Benzimidazole by using the pump, cold water. Procedure
- 7. Dissolve the synthesis product in 400 ml of boiling water, Add 2 gm of decolorizing carbon & digest for 15 min Filter rapidly through a Buchner funnel & a flask at the pump. Cool the filtrate to about 100C, filter off the Benzimidazole, Wash with 25 ml of cold water & dry at 1000C. The yield of pure Benzimidazole is 25 gm (85%). M.p. 171-1720C. Recrystalisation

- 9. Calculation Here limiting reagent is o-phenylenediamine; hence yield should be calculated from its amount taken. Molecular formula of o-phenylenediamine forms = C6H8N2 . Molecular formula of Benzimidazole = C7H6N2 . Molecular weight of o-phenylenediamine = 108 g/mole. Molecular weight of Benzimidazole = 118 g/mole.
- 10. Theoretical yield:- 105 g o-phenylenediamine forms 118 g Benzimidazole Therefore, 2.7 g o-phenylenediamine will from …. (X) g Benzimidazole X = (118x2.7)/108 = 2.95 g Theoretical yield = 2.95 g Practical yield = 2.91 g % yield = (Practical yield) x 100 =2.91/2.95 =98.64% (Theoretical yield) Theoretical yield
