Abstract By reaction of 1, 2-diaminobenzimidazole with 1, 3-diketones, acetoacetic ester and its derivatives, we have synthesized substituted 1, 2, 4-triazepino [2, 3-a] benzimidazole and 5H-1, 2, 4-triazepino [2, 3-a] benzimidazol-4-one. By reaction of 5H-2-methyl-1, 2, 4- triazepino [2, 3-a] benzimidazol-4-one with aromatic aldehydes or phenyldiazonium chloride, we have obtained 3-arylidene (phenylazo) derivatives of this compound, and by ...
