A series of α-alkoxyimino-[1-(4-methylpiperazino-1-yl)carbonylmethyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl] acetonitriles were synthesized from o-phenylenediamine, ethyl cyanoacetate, chloroacetyl piperazine, and haloalkane/benzyl chloride by multi-step reactions. The structures of the target compounds were elucidated by IR, 1H NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. All the target compounds were tested for in vitro antifungal activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cinerea by the mycelium growth rate method, and the results indicated that some compounds displayed higher antifungal activity as compared to carbendazim.

The reactivity of compounds 2-(1-(2-chloroacetyl)-1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)acetonitrile 2 and 3-(1-(2-chloroacetyl)-1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one 8 towards different chemical reagents were studied and a series of novel benzimidazole derivatives were obtained (2-6a-d and 8-12a-d). Moreover, in vitro growth inhibitory effect of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated in term of [IC50 μM] against the six cancer cell lines, human lung carcinoma (A549), lung cancer (H460), human colorectal (HT29), gasteric cancer cell (MKN-45), glioma cell line (U87MG) and cellosaurus cell line (SMMC-7721) where foretinib was used as standard reference. The results showed that compounds 2 (only for A549 cell line), 3a, 4, 6c, 6d, 8, 9a, 9e and 9f were the most active compounds towards the six cancer cell lines. On the other hand, the toxicity of these most potent compounds against shrimp larvae indicated that compounds 3a, 4, 6d, 9e and 9f were non toxic while compounds 6c and 8 were very toxic and compounds 2 and 9a were harmful against the tested organisms.
Novel benzimidazole-acrylonitrile hybrids and their derivatives: Design, synthesis and antimycobacterial activity

This paper reports the synthesis and evaluation of some benzimidazole-acrylonitrile hybrid derivatives for their in vitro antimycobacterial activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Among the derivatives studied, 3b was found to be the most active compound with MIC of 0.78 μg/mL against M. tuberculosis. This is a quite good activity compared with ethambutol (MIC = 1.56 μg/mL). Moreover, 3b showed 2.8 log fold reduction in bacterial count of dormant forms of mycobacterium which is more potent than first line drugs isoniazid, ciprofloxacin, rifampicin and moxifloxacin. Having activities against both active and dormant forms of M. tuberculosis, 3b may be a useful candidate for the development of new drugs to treat tuberculosis.
Antimalarial Pyrido[1,2- a]benzimidazole Derivatives with Mannich Base Side Chains: Synthesis, Pharmacological Evaluation, and Reactive Metabolite Trapping Studies

A novel series of pyrido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles bearing Mannich base side chains and their metabolites were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antiplasmodium activity, microsomal metabolic stability, reactive metabolite (RM) formation, and in vivo antimalarial efficacy in a mouse model. Oral administration of one of the derivatives at 4 × 50 mg/kg reduced parasitemia by 95% in Plasmodium berghei-infected mice, with a mean survival period of 16 days post-treatment. The in vivo efficacy of these derivatives is likely a consequence of their active metabolites, two of which showed potent in vitro antiplasmodium activity against chloroquine-sensitive and multidrug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) strains. Rapid metabolism was observed for all the analogues with 40% of parent compound remaining after 30 min of incubation in liver microsomes. RM trapping studies detected glutathione adducts only in derivatives bearing 4-aminophenol moiety, with fragmentation signatures showing that this conjugation occurred on the phenyl ring of the Mannich base side chain. As with amodiaquine (AQ), interchanging the positions of the 4-hydroxyl and Mannich base side group or substituting the 4-hydroxyl with fluorine appeared to block bioactivation of the AQ-like derivatives though at the expense of antiplasmodium activity, which was significantly lowered.
