Optimization of Benzimidazole Scaffold with a trans -Phenylcyclohexyl Acetic Acid as Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase-1 Inhibitors

Synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles using an aza-Wittig-equivalent process

Based on an aza-Wittig-equivalent process, a novel synthetic approach for 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles has been successfully designed, which provides mild reaction conditions and excellent yields.
