Summary:[Display omitted] •Synthesis of benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, and quinoxalines using VOSO4 as catalyst.•Environmentally benign protocol with mild reaction conditions and high yields.•Wide substrate scope shown by synthesis of structurally diverse benzimidazole derivatives.•Reusability of VOSO4 for at least three times.•The protocol is also useful in gram scale synthesis. Herein, we describe a highly efficient and eco-friendly protocol for the synthesis of benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, and quinoxalines using VOSO4 as a catalyst in ethanol. Use of nontoxic and recyclable catalyst, clean reaction profile, high yields, scalability, and broad substrate scope are the important practical features of the present protocol.
