Abstract

A series of new N-substituted pyrazole-containing benzimidazoles was synthesized starting from 1,2-diaminobenzene and pyrazole-
4-carbaldehyde in good yield. Antioxidant activity of all title compounds was assessed using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and
hydrogen peroxide assays. Some of the synthesized compounds having benzyl substituent at the imidazole nitrogen exhibited good
activity in both assays.
