An efficient method for the synthesis of <i>N</i>-thiomethyl benzimidazoles from <i>o</i>-phenylenediamines, thiophenols, and aldehydes <i>via</i> C-N/C-S bond formation under metal-free conditions is described. A broad range of functional groups attached to the substrates were well tolerated in this reaction system. Stable and low-toxicity paraformaldehyde was used as the carbon source. ...[more]
