Substituted 2-alkyl-benzimidazoles were synthesized from benzene-1,2-diamine and tertiary amines as alkylating agent under polystyrene supported rhodium (Rh@PS) nanoparticles (NPs) catalyzed conditions. The heterogeneous rhodium catalyst was applied first time for the synthesis of 2-alkyl-benzimidazoles. The reaction followed through oxidation of alkylamines, transamination, and oxidative cyclisation with benzene-1,2-diamines for the corresponding products synthesis with good yields. The process is applicable for vast substrate scope, several functional groups are tolerable, and the Rh@PS catalyst is recyclable up to four cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity.

One-pot synthesis of disubstituted benzimidazoles from N-substituted 2-nitroanilines or 1,2-diamines with 3-12 nm-sized platinum particles loaded on the TiO2 using solar and UV-A light is described. 1-Aryl-2-alkylbenzimidazoles from 2-nitrodiphenylamines are formed by combined redox photocatalytic reaction, condensation and catalytic dehydrogenation on Pt-TiO2. In case of diamines, this reaction is proceeded by Pt-TiO2 assisted photocatalytic oxidation of an alcohol and a catalytic dehydrogenation of the intermediate on the surface of platinum nanoparticles. In both cases product formation was achieved by tandem photocatalytic and catalytic reactions on Pt-TiO2.
