A novel efficient method for the selective synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazoles is described through condensation reaction of o-phenylenediamines with a wide rang of aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehyde substrates using Br?nsted acidic ionic liquid as a reusable catalyst under metal-free conditions at ambient temperature. Notably, Dodecylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([DodecIm][HSO4]) is the most efficient catalyst for good to excellent yields of the corresponding products (up to 98%). Subsequently, this protocol was successfully applied for the preparation of N-alkylated 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles in high to excellent yields via sequential one-pot reaction. In addition, catalysts are recycled at least four times without significant loss in activity.

A green and practical method to construct benzimidazoles, which are ubiquitous structural units in a number of biologically active compounds, has been developed. The catalyst and additive free conditions, using air as oxidant and the mild conditions make

Three isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), dimeric enzymes that catalyze the formation of nitric oxide (NO) from arginine, have been identified. Inappropriate or excessive NO produced by iNOS and/or nNOS is associated with inflammatory and neuropathic pain. Previously, we described the identification of a series of amide-quinolinone iNOS dimerization inhibitors that although potent, suffered from high clearance and limited exposure in vivo. By conformationally restricting the amide of this progenitor series, we describe the identification of a novel series of benzimidazole-quinolinone dual iNOS/nNOS inhibitors with low clearance and sustained exposure in vivo. Compounds were triaged utilizing an LPS challenge assay coupled with mouse and rhesus pharmacokinetics and led to the identification of 4,7-imidazopyrazine 42 as the lead compound. 42 (KD7332) (J. Med. Chem. 2009, 52, 3047 -3062) was confirmed as an iNOS dimerization inhibitor and was efficacious in the mouse formalin model of nociception and Chung model of neuropathic pain, without showing tolerance after repeat dosing. Further 42 did not affect motor coordination up to doses of 1000 mg/kg, demonstrating a wide therapeutic margin.
