Abstract: | X-ray electronic, IR, and electronic spectroscopy were used to determine that N-(2-benzimidazolyl)-O-carbamate in the crystalline state and in organic solvents exists predominantly in the benzimidazole carbamate form. The acid-base characteristics of N-(2-benzimidazolyl)-O-methylcarbamate were evaluated. The spectra of this compound were interpreted using quantum chemical calculations and experimental data.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 68–74, January, 1986. |
