Copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of 2-arylmethylidene-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles under air and basic conditions was examined in detail. With copper acetate as the catalyst and sodium hydroxide as the base in DMF at 120 ℃ for 24 h, the reaction afforded the corresponding ketones via oxidation of benzylic C—H bond in good yields. Various 2-aryloyl-1H-benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized by the above method, and the structure was characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR.

Key words: copper-catalyzed, benzimidazoles, oxygen, oxidation, C—H bond activation
