Description

General description

2-Mercaptobenzimidazole is a good corrosion inhibitor as it reduces the corrosion rate of metals.

Application

2-Mercaptobenzimidazole can be used:

To prepare 2-benzimidazolylthioacetophenones by reacting with aromatic ketones, which is a key intermediate for the synthesis of thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazoles.
To synthesize S-arylated 2-mercapto-benzimidazoles via S-arylation with substituted aryl iodides using CuI and 1,10-phenanthroline.

Selective and sensitive recognition of Cu2+ in an aqueous medium: a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based analysis with a low-cost Raman reporter.

Sougata Sarkar et al.

Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany), 18(20), 6335-6342 (2012-04-05)

In the present study, surface-enhanced Raman spectra of a bifunctional Raman reporter, 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, has been found to be responsive exclusively towards Cu(2+) ions while the reporter remains anchored on the Au nanoparticle surface. Thus a specific Cu(2+)-ion-detection protocol emerges. The

Determination of colloidal gold nanoparticle surface areas, concentrations, and sizes through quantitative ligand adsorption.

Manuel Gadogbe et al.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry, 405(1), 413-422 (2012-10-25)

Determination of the true surface areas, concentrations, and particle sizes of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is a challenging issue due to the nanoparticle morphological irregularity, surface roughness, and size distributions. A ligand adsorption-based technique for determining AuNP surface areas in solution

Zebrafish as a new model for phenotype-based screening of melanogenic regulatory compounds.

Tae-Young Choi et al.

Pigment cell research, 20(2), 120-127 (2007-03-21)

Although many hypo-pigmenting agents are currently available, the demand for novel whitening agents is increasing, in part due to the weak effectiveness and unwanted side effects of currently available compounds. To screen for novel hypo-pigmenting agents, many methodologies such as
