A series of half-sandwich iridium(III) benzimidazole-appended imidazolium-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) antitumor complexes [(η5-Cpx)Ir(C^N)Cl]Cl, where Cpx is pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) or its biphenyl derivative (Cpxbiph) and C^N is a NHC chelating ligand, were successfully synthesized and characterized. The IrIII complexes showed potential antitumor activity against A549 cells, at most three times more potent than cis-platin under the same conditions. Complexes could bind to BSA by a static quenching mode, catalyzing the change of NADH to NAD+ and inducing the production of reactive oxygen species (maximum turnover number, 9.8), which play an important role in regulating cell apoptosis. Confocal microscopy showed that the complexes could specifically target lysosomes in cells with a Pearson's co-localization coefficient 0.76 and 0.72 after 1 h and 6 h, respectively, followed an energy-dependent cellular uptake mechanism and damaged the integrity of lysosomes. At the same time, complexes caused a marked loss of mitochondrial membrane potential.

The vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 signaling pathway promotes the formation of new blood vessels, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase exists in both active and inactive conformations. Novel indole–benzimidazole and indole–benzothiazole derivatives joined by different linkers are designed and synthesized as inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines (HeLa, HT29, A549, and MDA-MB-435) and human umbilical vein endothelial cell. Meanwhile, the inhibitory activities against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 are estimated in vitro and the binding interactions with dual conformations of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase are evaluated by molecular docking. Compounds 5a–c and 14 show inhibitory activity against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase and promising cytotoxicity, specifically with IC50 values ranging between 0.1 and 1 μM, which imply broad-spectrum antitumor activity. These results provide a deep insight into potential structural modifications for developing potent vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

A novel series of N-methyl/benzyl-substituted benzimidazolyl-linked para-substituted benzyl-based compounds containing 2,4-thiazolidinediones, dimethyl malonate (DMM), and diethyl malonate (DEM) 17–27 were designed, docked, synthesized, and evaluated for their antidiabetic activity studies. Structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed through 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, and mass spectrometry. Four targeted compounds (17–18 and 22–23) showed good inhibitory potential in the range of 4.10 ± 0.01 to 9.12 ± 0.06 μM. Furthermore, synthesized compounds 17–27 were evaluated for their antioxidant potential and compared with standard ascorbic acid and results showed that compound 18 (EC50 = 0.176 ± 0.002 mM) being the most active. Compounds 17–18 and 22–23 exhibited prominent antidiabetic as well as antioxidant activity. Compound 18 was considered a promising candidate for this series. The designed molecules were docked into α-glucosidase protein (PDB Code. 3TOP) to develop a correlation with the α-glucosidase inhibition studies and were also additionally docked into PPARγ proteins (PDB ID: 2PRG) with rosiglitazone (standard drug) to study their PPARγ binding affinity in comparison with rosiglitazone and to classify these compounds for their PPARγ agonistic behavior.
