A series of methyl 6-Chloro-2-Substitued-1-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]1H-benzoimidazol-5-ylamine were successfully synthesized. Benzimidazoles were prepared by condensation of 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine with substituted aryl, aldehyde condensation with biphenyl tetrazole group and reduction stannous chloride dihydrate. An insertion-cyclization strategy was involved during synthe...

A general and efficient phosphorous acid-catalyzed cyclocondensation of β-ketoesters with o-aminobenzamides via selective C-C bond cleavage leading to quinazolinones is developed. This reaction proceeds smoothly under metal- and oxidant-free conditions, giving both 2-alkyl- and 2-aryl-substituted quinazolinones in excellent yields. This strategy can also be applied to the synthesis of other N-h...

Two series of benzimidazole derivatives were sythesised. The first one was based on 5,6-dinitrobenzimidazole, the second one comprises 2-thioalkyl- and thioaryl-substituted modified benzimidazoles. Antibacterial and antiprotozoal activity of the newly obtained compounds was studied. Some thioalkyl derivatives showed remarkable activity against nosocomial strains of Stenotrophomonas malthophilia...
