Synthesis and characterization of some novel higher C,N-diphenyl nitrones, isoxazolines, and mercaptobenzimidazoles as oleochemicals

Abstract

Some novel long-chain nitrones, isoxazolines, and (1H-benzo[d]-imidazol-2-ylthio) derivatives were synthesized. Nitrones, N-{4-[2-(tetradecylthio) acetoxy] benzylidene} aniline oxide, and N-[4-(12-oxo-2,5,8,11-tetraoxadocosan-22-yloxy)benzylidene]aniline oxide were prepared via the reaction of beta-phenylhydroxylamine with the corresponding aromatic aldehydes. The isoxazolines were prepared from undec-10-en-1-ol and benzonitrile-N-oxide which was generated in situ. The 1H-benzo[d]-imidazol-2-ylthio derivatives were synthesized via the replacement reaction of omega-bromo esters and 2-mercaptobenzimidazole.
