A series of alkyl-(5-acyl-l-H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-carbamates were prepared and screened for anthelminthic activity. Some of them were found to be fully active at low, atoxic oral dose levels against gastro-intestinal nematodes. The activity against Syphacia muris and Strongyloides ratta is indicated. From these studies methyl (5-benzoyl-1-H-benzimidazol-2-yl) carbamate (mebendazole) and methyl [5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-1-H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbamate (flubendazole) were selected for detailed investigation.
