Then, 1-(3-phenylpropyl)-3-methylbenzimidazolium-2-carbodithioate (c) was prepared with carbene and CS2. Finally, a group of alkyl 1-(3-phenylpropyl)-3-methylbenzimidazolium-2-carbodithioate halides was synthesized with alkyl halides and compound c, occurring products 1-6. Structural characterization of compounds was performed H-1, and C-13 NMR, IR, and MS spectroscopy and elemental analysis.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDithioestercarbodithioatebenzimidazoleN-heterocyclic carbenezwitterionsArticle195758058510.1080/10426507.2020.17287602-s2.0-85079826604Q4WOS:000514992600001Q4
