In this paper, a new peroxide-induced carbon-centered radical relay carbocyclization reaction with 2-arylbenzo-imidazoles is described. This method provides an efficient route to a series of structurally diverse benzimidazole[2, 1-a]iso-quinolines under mild conditions in a straightforward manner. The reaction is compatible with a wide substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance and high step economy. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction proceeds through a carbon-centered radical pathway.
