ABSTRACT. By employing a simple strategy of reacting SO2 gas with easily attainable hydride donors such as 2-substituted-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, benzimidazoline and SO2 were converted into benzimidazolium bisulfate at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Bisulfate originated from SO2, hydride from benzimidazoline and aerial oxygen. Metastable dimers of bisulfate anions were observed in the solid state and in solution where the anions are not stabilized by encapsulation in cages but through hydrogen bonding from benzimidazolium cations.

All the three benzimidazolines and resulted benzimidazolium

bisulfates have been characterized using 1H and

13

C NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution

electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques.

INTRODUCTION. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is one among the small molecules that are detrimental to the environment and poses risks to human health. Prolonged exposure to SO2 contaminated air can cause respiratory and skin diseases. Oxides of sulfur can react with other molecules in the atmosphere to form fine particles that reduce visibility (haze). SO2 is a precursor to acid rain that poses risks to monumental structures such as Tajmahal in India and Mayan temples in Mexico, as sulfuric acid in the acid rain reacts with the marble exterior (CaCO3) and converts it into more soluble calcium sulfate (solubility in water: CaCO3, 1.3×10—4 mol/L; CaSO4, 4.5×10—2 mol/L). As a consequence, environmental chemists around the world are toiling to discover greener technologies to sequester and activate SO2 into value added commodities. Many strategies have been developed to sequester and/or activate SO2 using electron rich amines,1-4 ionic liquids,5-9 highly reactive metal-alkyl/aryl complexes10-28 of electron rich noble metals such as rhodium, ruthenium,29 platinum,30,31 iridium,32 metal-organic frameworks,33 multicomponent assemblies,34,35 etc., Interesting activation of SO2 was reported by Darensbourg et al., where the electron poor S of SO2 (O=S+−O— ↔ O—−S+=O ↔ O0.5—−S+−O0.5—) binds on an electron rich Ni(II)-bound-thiolate center through S—···SO2 interactions and undergoes Soxygenation utilizing aerial oxygen to yield sulfate; two electrons resulted from the sacrificial disulfide formation of an expensive ligand (eq 1).36-38 Industry uses vanadium based catalysts and temperature as high as 400 °C to produce sulfuric acid from SO2 (SO2 → SO3 → H2S2O7 → H2SO4).

Recently, we have utilized benzothiazolines and its coordination complexes in aerial oxygen involved activation of SO2 into sulphuric acid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.39 Benzothiazolines undergo aerial oxidation spontaneously to yield benzothiazoles, which hampers storing them for prolonged periods. We have managed to avoid this problem by installing benzothiazolines as ligands on transition metals to store them as stable coordination complexes.39 However, we sought to circumvent the use of transition metals in the process as they may pose risk to the environment. Thus we are in continuous search of hydrogen or hydride donors that are easily attainable and weaker reductants than benzothiazolines to avoid spontaneous

aerial

oxidation.40

In

the

aforementioned

search

we

stumbled

upon

benzimidazolines as sacrificial hydride donors, which are weaker as hydride donors than highly sensitive benzothiazolines (Figure 1).41-44 Figure 1. Structures of benzimidazolines used in the present work.

Reactions of benzimidazolines MB1-H, MB2-H and MB3-H with SO2 yielded corresponding benzimidazolium bisulfates readily (Scheme 2) that were characterized by 1H and 13

C NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometric techniques (ESI-MS),

and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The yellow color benzimidazoline, 1,3-dimethyl-2phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (MB1-H) with an oxidation potential of –68 mV (vs Fc+/Fc in acetonitrile at 298 K)58 was dissolved in dry acetonitrile at room temperature and SO2 was purged for 20 minutes; the color of the solution turned red upon purging SO2 which was left to stand in open air. Initial characterization of the resulted solution was performed employing high resolution ESI-MS; envelops of m/z = 223.1236 in positive ion mode corresponding to 1,3dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium cation (calculated m/z = 223.1235; Fig. S7, S4) and 96.9582 in negative ion mode corresponding to bisulfate anion (calculated m/z = 96.9596; Fig. S8, S9) were observed that unequivocally confirmed the loss of hydride from benzimidazoline (MB1-H) to yield 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium cation with simultaneous formation of bisulfate anion which is in line with the observed reactivity of benzothiazolines with SO2 reported by us.39 Interestingly, an envelope of m/z = 194.9268 (Fig. S8) was also observed in negative ion mode which might correspond to the hydrogen bonded dimer of two bisulfate anions in protonated form (calculated m/z = 194.9269 for [HSO4¯⋅⋅⋅HSO4¯ + H+]¯ monoanion; Fig. S18). The observation of this metastable dimer made of two bisulfate anions is contrary to the Coulomb’s law but stabilized by hydrogen bonding to each other.58 This encouraged us to look for the possibilities of isolating this metastable dimer due to a recent report from Amar Flood where hydrogen-bonded bisulfate dimer was encapsulated in a cyanostar macrocyclic host.58 As MB1HSO4 does not have such a cage structure, observation of bisulfate dimer was a great surprise to us. Hence, we set out to see the stabilizing factors of such a dimer

in solution and utilized MB2-H in SO2 activation; MB2-H comprises similar properties as MB1H and reacted with SO2 to yield MB2HSO4. Figure 2. Solid-state structure of 2-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3ium bisulfate (MB2HSO4) obtained by the reaction of SO2 with MB2-H showing the bisulfate dimers.58 Selected distances: O(7)⋅⋅⋅O(12), 2.551; O(6)⋅⋅⋅O(9), 2.607; O(1)⋅⋅⋅O(11), 2.662; O(2)⋅⋅⋅O(10), 2.644; S(2)-O(8), 1.4315(16); S(2)-O(5), 1.4385(16); S(2)-O(7), 1.4761(15); S(2)O(6), 1.5574(16); S(3)-O(11), 1.4452(16); S(3)-O(10), 1.4502(16); S(3)-O(9), 1.4640(15); S(3)O(12), 1.5521(15). Crystallographic details are available as supplementary information (Fig. S33, 34; Table S2; CCDC-1541079).

MB2-H was chosen as the hydroxyl group might help to trap the intermediates involved and/or to stabilize the metastable dimeric bisulfate. To our surprise, the hydroxyl group indeed stabilized the bisulfate dimer, which is seen in the solid-state structure unequivocally (Fig. 2). The distances observed in the X-ray structure of MB2HSO4 suggests that the hydrogen bonds present are closer to the range of strong than moderate ones.59 The bisulfate dimer is further connected to two benzimidazolium through O-H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2). The cationic

carbon center acquired trigonal planar geometry as seen in the solid-state structures of benzimidazolium bisulfate salts (Scheme2; Fig. 2, 4) as a result of aromatization upon loosing hydride from benzimidazoline to SO2. This can be clearly seen from the sum of the three angles (N1CN2, N1CCAr, N2CCAr) around the carbon which is ~360° in MBXHSO4 (X=1-3) whereas the same was 343.68° in MB2-H. The ESI-MS envelope corresponding to [HSO4¯⋅⋅⋅HSO4¯ + H+]¯ monoanion was more intense than the peak for HSO4¯ anion that indicates the pronounced stability of the bisulfate dimer in solution even at harsh conditions of ESI-MS spectrometry (Fig. 3, S17-S19). In addition to the envelopes for monomeric and dimeric bisulfate anions, we have observed envelopes for the anions [MB2+⋅⋅⋅(HSO4¯⋅⋅⋅HSO4¯)]¯ at 433.0370 (calculated m/z = 433.0375; Fig. S17, S19), [(MB2+⋅⋅⋅[HSO4¯⋅⋅⋅HSO4¯]⋅⋅⋅MB2+)-H+]¯ at 671.1506 (calculated m/z = 671.1482; Fig. SS17, S20), [(MB2+⋅⋅⋅[HSO4¯⋅⋅⋅HSO4¯]⋅⋅⋅MB2+)+HSO4¯]¯ at 769.1174 (calculated m/z = 769.1155; Fig. S17, S21) and [(MB2HSO4)3-H+]¯ anion at 1007.2303 (calculated m/z = 1007.2262; Fig. S17, S22). To the best of our knowledge this is the first time these many metastable anions have been observed to be stable in solution at harsh conditions. Figure 3.

In order to unequivocally confirm that the presence of hydroxyl group in the MB2 moiety was the reason for the stabilization of the aforementioned metastable anions of bisulfates even in solution, we have designed MB3-H with bromopyridinyl substitution (Fig. S23-S26). The design of MB3-H was also inspired by our previous results where we have employed 2-(pyridin-2-yl)2,3-dihydrobenzothiazole to catch hold of the intermediate Bunte salt, S-(2-((pyridin-1-ium-2ylmethyl)amino)phenyl)thiosulfate.39 Though MB3-H was able to react with SO2 to yield MB3HSO4 in the similar manner as MB1-H and MB2-H (Fig. 4, S27-S30), stabilization of bisulfate dimer was not observed in its ESI-MS spectra (Fig. S29, S30); this suggests that the hydroxyl group of MB2-H was keeping the bisulfate dimers stable in solution through hydrogen bonds.

CONCLUSIONS. Benzimidazolines are shown to convert SO2 into bisulfate anions at room temperature and atmospheric pressure utilising aerial oxygen producing benzimidazolium bisulfates in moderate to good yields (51-91%) though benzimidazolines are weaker hydride donors than benzothiazolines that were used as organic hydride donors in our previous study.39 One of the benzimidazolium bisulfate salts formed (MB2HSO4) showed interesting feature of stabilizing metastable dimers of bisulfate anions in solid-state and in solution at harsh conditions; this was possible by the hydrogen bonding provided by the hydroxyl group of benzimidazolium cations to the dimeric bisulfate anions. To date dimeric anions or clusters of anions have been observed only in solid-state; only in one case the bisulfate dimer has been observed in solution where it is encapsulated in a cage.58 Further studies from our lab will focus on newly developed hydride donors that are weaker than benzimidazolines or benzothiazolines in activating small molcules such as SO2. Studies on stabilizing the metastable bisulfate dimers might shed light on the formation of haze, aerosols through nucleation as bisulfate is among the most prevalent anions in atmosphere due to its pronounced stability.60

Experimental Section. Materials. 1,2-Phenylenediamine (SDFCL), p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (SDFCL), pyridine (SDFCL), dimethylsulfate (SDFCL), NaOH flakes (Fisher), 6-bromopyridine-2-carboxaldehyde (TCI India), benzaldehyde (Rankem) and salicylaldehyde (SRL) were used as received from commercial sources. Solvents were distilled under dry nitrogen atmosphere using conventional methods. N,N'-(1,2-Phenylene)bis(N,4-dimethylbenzenesulfonamide),61 N1,N2-dimethylbenzene1,2-diamine62 and 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole63 were synthesized by following literature methods. Methods. NMR spectra were recorded on JEOL 500 MHz and JEOL 400 MHz spectrometers. Temperature was kept constant using a variable temperature unit within the error limit of ±1 K. The software MestReNova64 was used for the processing of the NMR spectra. Tetramethylsilane (TMS) or the deuterated solvent residual peaks were used for calibration. Mass spectrometry experiments were performed on a Waters-Q-ToF-Premier-HAB213 equipped with an electrospray interface. Spectra were collected by constant infusion of the sample dissolved in methanol or acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. The freeware mMass was used to simulate the calculated isotopic distributions.65 Crystal Structure Determinations. Single-crystal X-ray data were collected at 123 K on a Bruker SMART APEX CCD diffractometer using graphite-monochromated Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71069 Å). The linear absorption coefficients, the scattering factors for the atoms, and the anomalous dispersion corrections were taken from International Tables for X-ray Crystallography. Data integration and reduction were conducted with SAINT. An empirical absorption correction was applied to the

Benzimidazolines convert sulphur dioxide to bisulfate at room temperature and atmospheric pressure utilising aerial oxygen Sonam Mehrotra,† Sakthi Raje † Anant Kumar Jain† and Raja Angamuthu*† By employing a simple strategy of reacting SO2 gas with easily attainable hydride donors such as 2-substituted-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, benzimidazoline and SO2 were converted into benzimidazolium bisulfate at room temperature and atmospheric pressure where bisulfate originated from SO2, hydride from benzimidazoline and aerial oxygen. Metastable dimers of bisulfate anions were observed in the solid state and in solution.
