A series of 2,2'-bibenzimidazolium salts has been prepared by N,N'-bridging using dihaloalkanes. These salts may be reduced by either one or two electrons to the corresponding cation radical or neutral 2,2'-bibenzimidazolylidene. The latter species undergoes a chemiluminescent reaction with dioxygen to afford conformationally unique ureaphanes. Two benzimidazole molecules may be joined by N,N'-bridges to form bis(benzimidazolium) salts which may be deprotonated with sodium hydride. Subsequent intramolecular 2,2'-coupling leads to the same 2, 8'-bibenzimidazolinylidenes. The structural features of the ureaphane oxidation products have been studied by X-ray crystallography and NMR. An equimolar mixture of a 2,2'-bibenzimidazolium salt and the corresponding 2,2'-bibenzimidazolinylidene will coproportionate to form the analogous cation radical.

MesnpyH ligands confer a red-shift in the emission compared to MesppyH but maintain high photoluminescence quantumyields due to the steric bulk of the mesityl groups. The H2bibenz and o-xylbibenz ligands are shown to be electronically indistinct to dtbubpy but give complexes with higher quantumyields than analogous complexes bearing dtbubpy. In particular, the rigidity of the o-xylbibenz ligand, combined

A new strategy for the synthesis of polycyclic imidazole‐containing N‐heterocycles, based on the two general synthetic ways, namely the Pd(II)‐catalyzedintramoleculararylationvia CH/CHal and CH/CH coupling reactions, was developed. The method proposed here enables the synthesis of many fused N‐heterocycles containing purine, 1‐deazapurines and benzimidazole structural units.
