Summary:Imidazoles and benzimidazoles are molecules of wide interest and importance, especially with regard to their pharmaceutical applications. This book surveys the known methods of synthesis and ring modification and presents recommendations for the most attractive synthetic approaches. It brings together the multitude of syntheses of the imidazole ring in a systematic way in terms of specific bond formation. The author also collects non-ring-synthetic approaches to classes of compounds such as nitro-, halogeno-, amino-, and cyano-imidazoles and covers the syntheses of N-substituted compounds, and preparations of specific isomers. Full synthetic details are provided for selected compounds and tables of examples list percentage yields. An extensive list of references is included in each chapter and the index will direct readers to examples of specific compound types throughout the book.
