Inhibition of angiogenesis through inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) has been applied in cancer therapy because of its important role in promoting cancer growth and metastasis. In the presented study, a series of benzimidazol-furan hybrids was designed and synthesized through facile synthetic pathways. Evaluation of the synthesized compounds for their in?vitro cytotoxic activity against breast (MCF-7) and hepatocellular (HepG2) carcinoma cell lines was performed. Two of the synthesized conjugates, 10b and 15, showed potent antiproliferative properties against MCF-7 cell line (IC50?=?21.25, 21.35?μM, respectively) in comparison to tamoxifen (IC50?=?21.57?μM). Additionally, compounds 10a, 10b, 15 and 17 showed promising potency (IC50?=?25.95, 22.58, 26.94 and 31.06?μM, respectively) against liver carcinoma cell line HepG2 in contrast to cisplatin (IC50?=?31.16?μM). Moreover, in?vitro evaluation of the synthesized compounds for their effect on the level of VEGFR-2 in MCF-7?cell line showed their potent inhibitory activity relative to control untreated cells. Four compounds 10a, 10b, 14 and 15 showed 92–96% reduction in VEGFR-2 level, compared with tamoxifen and sorafenib which showed inhibition percentage of 98% and 95.75%, respectively. Compound 10a was found to have promising VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity (IC50?=?0.64?μM) in comparison to sorafenib (IC50?=?0.1?μM). Molecular docking was performed to study the binding pattern of the newly synthesized compounds with VEGFR-2 active site. Molecular docking attributed their good VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity to their hydrogen bonding interaction with the key amino acids in VEGFR-2 active site, Glu885 and Asp1046, and their hydrophobic interaction by their 2-furylbenzimidazole moiety with the allosteric hydrophobic back pocket in a type III inhibitors-like binding mode. The binding interaction is augmented by a ring substituent with long chain extension at position 1 of the benzimidazole due to its hydrophobic interaction with the hydrophobic side chains of the amino acids at the interface between the ATP binding site and the allosteric back pocket. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) was inferred for future optimization based on the performed biological and docking studies.

Anomeric 2-(α- and β-D-erythrofuranosyl)benzimidazole C-nucleoside analogues 2 and 3, were prepared from the corresponding epimeric 2-(D-arabino, and D-ribo-tetritol-1-yl)-benzimidazole analogues 1 and 4, respectively. Similarly, 2-(β-L-erythrofuranosyl)benzimidazole 13 was obtained from the precursor 2-(L-arabino-tetritol-1-yl)benzimidazole 12. The structure and anomeric configuration of the C-nucleoside analogues 2, 3, and 13 were determined by acylation, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry.

Metal-organic hybrid complexes often exhibit large surface area, pore volume, fascinating structures and potential applications including catalytic applications. Hence a new metal-organic hybrid complex [Diaquo{bis(p-hydroxybenzoato-κ1O1)}(1-methylimidazole- κ1N1)}copper(II)] was synthesized using conventional method. Physico-chemical characterization of the complex was performed with FTIR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction, TGA, EPR and FESEM. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study suggests it to be three dimensional with space group P212121 (orthorhombic). The crystal achieves its three-dimensional structure and stability through extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Hirshfeld surface analysis, catalytic activity and DFT study of the complex was also performed. The synthesized complex acts as good catalyst in benzimidazole synthesis with good recyclability as catalyst up to 5th run.

Co nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated in N-doped carbon nanotubes (Co@NC900) are systematically investigated as a potential alternative to precious Pt-group catalysts for hydrogenative heterocyclization reactions. Co@NC900 can efficiently catalyze hydrogenative coupling of 2-nitroaniline to benzaldehyde for synthesis of 2-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole with >99 % yield at ambient temperature in one step. The robust Co@NC900 catalyst can be easily recovered by an external magnetic field after the reaction and readily recycled for at least six times without any evident decrease in activity. Kinetic experiments indicate that Co@NC900-promoted hydrogenation is the rate-determining step with a total apparent activation energy of 41±1 kJ mol?1. Theoretical investigations further reveal that Co@NC900 can activate both H2 and the nitro group of 2-nitroaniline. The observed energy barrier for H2 dissociation is only 2.70 eV in the rate-determining step, owing to the presence of confined Co NPs in Co@NC900. Potential industrial application of the earth-abundant and non-noble transition metal catalysts is also explored for green and efficient synthesis of heterocyclic compounds.

We report the tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide catalyzed oxidative coupling of amines and alcohols for the synthesis of imines under metal-free conditions by utilizing oxygen from air as the terminal oxidant. Under the same conditions, with ortho-phenylene diamines and 2-aminobenzenethiols the corresponding benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles were obtained. Quinoxalines were obtained from ortho-phenylene diamines and 1-phenylethane-1,2-diol, the conditions were then extended to the synthesis of quinoline building blocks by reaction of 2-amino benzyl alcohols either with 1-phenylethan-1-ol or acetophenone derivatives. The formation of C?N, C?S and C?C bonds was achieved under metal-free conditions. A broad range of amines (aromatic, aliphatic, cyclic and heteroaromatic) as well as benzylic alcohols including heteroaryl alcohols reacted smoothly and provided the desired products. The mild reaction conditions, commercially available catalyst, metal-free, good functional-group tolerance, broad range of products (imines, benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, quinoxalines and quinolines) and applicability at gram scale reactions are the advantages of the present strategy.

Substituted benzimidazoles and pyrimidazoles are an important group of heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds in the field of medicinal chemistry. A one-step microwave accelerated synthesis of substituted benzo- and pyridine-fused 1H-imidazoles has been described. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds by reacting substituted 2-fluoronitrobenzene and substituted arylamine through the formation of N-hydroxy intermediate, which at higher temperature cleaves to afford the desired product. This approach achieved reductions in reaction times, higher yields, cleaner reactions than the previously described synthetic processes.

This study reports a straightforward heterogeneous catalytic (Al-MCM-41) approach to synthesize nitrogen heterocycle moieties from primary amines under solvent-free conditions. The Al-MCM-41 catalyst was prepared using a hydrothermal method and characterized by various analytical techniques. The probability and limitations of the catalytic methodology were presented with various substrates. The catalytic method grants an attractive route to a wide variety of benzimidazole and quinoxaline moieties with good to excellent yields. The gram scale reaction and reusability (up to five cycles) of the Al-MCM-41 catalyst would greatly benefit industrial applications. This journal is

Developing green-safe, efficient and recyclable catalysts is crucial for the chemical industry. So far, organic photocatalysis has been proved to be an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient synthetic technology compared with traditional metal catalysis. As a versatile catalytic platform, hyper-crosslinked polymers (HCPs) with large surface area and high stability are easily prepared. In this report, we successfully constructed two porous HCP photocatalysts (TZ-HCPs) featurings-tetrazine units and surface areas larger than 700 m2g?1through Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions. The rational energy-band structures and coexisting micro- and mesopores endow TZ-HCPs with excellent activities to realize the green synthesis of benzimidazoles (28 examples, up to 99% yield, 0.5-4.0 h) in ethanol. Furthermore, at least 21 iterative catalytic runs mediated by TZ-HCP1D were performed efficiently, with 96-99% yield. This study of TZ-HCPs sheds light on the wide-ranging prospects of application of HCPs as metal-free and green photocatalysts for the preparation of fine chemicals.
