Abstract

A new series of 2-(4-bromobenzyl)- and 2-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-benzimidazole derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole, and morpholine rings have been synthesized. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectra, and all substances have been screened for their α-glucosidase inhibition, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activities. Hydrazide, oxadizole, thiosemicarbazide, and 1,2,4-triazol-3-thiol derivatives showed very good ABTS scavenging activities (IC50 1.94–4.79 μM). Oxadiazole and thiosemicarbazide derivatives also revealed notable DPPH scavenging activity. 5-[(2-(4-Bromobenzyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol was found to be more potent than acarbose. 2-(4-Fluorobenzyl)-1H-benzimidazole was effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and, especially, M. smegmatis.
