Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel hydroxy-phenyl-1H-benzimidazoles as radical scavengers and UV-protective agents

An ever-increasing incidence of skin neoplastic diseases is registered. Therefore, it is important to protect the skin from the UV radiation that reaches the epidermis and dermis but also to block ROS generated by them. Our attention was attracted in deve

UV-visible light-induced photochemical synthesis of benzimidazoles by coomassie brilliant blue coated on W-ZnO@NH2nanoparticles

Heterogeneous photocatalysts proffer a promising method to actualize eco-friendly and green organic transformations. Herein, a new photochemical-based methodology is disclosed in the preparation of a wide range of benzimidazoles through condensation of o-phenylenediamine with benzyl alcohols in the air under the illumination of an HP mercury lamp in the absence of any oxidizing species catalyzed by a new photocatalyst W-ZnO@NH2-CBB. In this photocatalyst, coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) is heterogenized onto W-ZnO@NH2 to improve the surface characteristics at the molecular level and enhance the photocatalytic activity of both W-ZnO@NH2 and CBB fragments. This unprecedented heterogeneous nanocatalyst is also identified by means of XRD, FT-IR, EDS, TGA-DTG, and SEM. The impact of some influencing parameters on the synthesis route and effects on the catalytic efficacy of W-ZnO@NH2-CBB are also assessed. The appropriate products are attained for both the electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents in the utilized aromatic alcohols. Furthermore, preparation of benzimidazoles is demonstrated to occur mainly via a radical mechanism, which shows that reactive species such as ·O2-, OH and h+ would be involved in the photocatalytic process. Stability and reusability studies also warrant good reproducibility of the nanophotocatalyst for at least five runs. Eventually, a hot filtration test proved that the nanohybrid photocatalyst is stable in the reaction medium. Using an inexpensive catalyst, UV-vis light energy and air, as a low cost and plentiful oxidant, puts this methodology in the green chemistry domain and energy-saving organic synthesis strategies. Finally, the anticancer activity of W-ZnO nanoparticles is investigated on MCF7 breast cancer cells by MTT assay. This experiment reveals that the mentioned nanoparticles have significant cytotoxicity towards the selected cell line.

Selective photocatalytic oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aldehydes with air by magnetic WO3ZnO/Fe3O4.: In situ photochemical synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazoles

Recently, visible light-driven organic photochemical synthesis has been a pioneering field of interest from academic and industrial associations due to its unique features of green and sustainable chemistry. Herein, WO3ZnO/Fe3O4 was synthesized, characterized, and used as an efficient magnetic photocatalyst in the preparation of a range of 2-substituted benzimidazoles via the condensation of benzyl alcohol and o-phenylenediamine in ethanol at room temperature for the first time. The key feature of this work is focused on the in situ photocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohols to benzaldehydes under atmospheric air and in the absence of any further oxidant. This new heterogeneous nanophotocatalyst was characterized via XRD, FT-IR, VSM and SEM. Short reaction time, cost-effectiveness, broad substrate scope, easy work-up by an external magnet, and excellent product yield are the major advantages of the present methodology. A number of effective experimental parameters were also fully investigated to clear broadness and generality of the protocol. This journal is

Exploring beta amyloid cleavage enzyme-1 inhibition and neuroprotective role of benzimidazole analogues as anti-alzheimer agents

Beta amyloid cleavage enzyme-1 (BACE1) is the key enzyme involved in Aβ peptide formation in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis. We intend to target this enzyme by exploring benzimidazole analogues against BACE1 as potential anti-Alzheimer agents. Docking studies were performed to determine the hydrogen bond interactions between the designed molecules and the target protein's active site. Research indicates the relationship between oxidative stress and Aβ effect in precipitating neurodegeneration; hence, the series was also studied in vitro to ascertain its neuroprotective role by performing the lipid peroxidation assay. In silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion studies were undertaken to assess the drug-like suitability of the analogues. To judge the effect of the synthesized analogues on central nervous system (CNS), toxicity and memory model studies were conducted on mice. Thus, overall results showcase analogues 11 and 14 as the most promising ones with the dual role of BACE1 inhibition and neuroprotection, along with memory retention.

Sulfonic-acid-functionalized activated carbon made from tea leaves as green catalyst for synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole and benzothiazole

Abstract: A simple and efficient procedure for synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole and benzothiazole has been developed by using sulfonic-acid-functionalized activated carbon as heterogeneous catalyst. The activated material was prepared from matured tea leaf in presence of phosphoric acid as activating agent. The final catalyst was prepared by anchoring –SO3H group on the surface of the activated carbon. The catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for more than three catalytic cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity. The catalytic performance of the catalyst was found to be superior to that of a similar catalyst prepared from montmorillonite K10. Graphical Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Experimental and theoretical approving of anomeric based oxidation in the preparation of 2-sbstituted benz-(imida, oxa and othia)-zoles using [2,6-DMPy-NO2]C(NO2)3 as a novel nano molten salt catalyst

The synthesis of 2-sbstituted benz-(imida, oxa and othia)-zole derivatives were occurred in the presence of 2,6-dimethyl-1-nitropyridin-1-ium trinitromethanide [2,6-DMPy-NO2]C(NO2)3via the condensation reaction between 1,2-phenylenediamine or 2-aminophenol or 2-aminothiophenol and corresponding aldehyde at room temperature under solvent-free conditions respectively. [2,6-DMPy-NO2]C(NO2)3 as a nano molten salt (NMS) catalyst was fully characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR and 13C NMR), mass, thermal gravimetric (TG), derivative thermal gravimetric (DTG), X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. The described reactions are in close agreement with the green chemistry disciplines and their major advantages are good yields, short reaction time and ease of separation. Our recently new introduced concept entitled "anomeric based oxidation" was proposed for the final step of the described synthesis and it was also approved using theoretical studies.
