Abstract

Heterocyclic compounds play a crucial role in medicinal chemistry, serving as key components in the development of pharmacologically active molecules. The therapeutic promise of many synthesized drugs can be attributed to their heterocyclic scaffolds, wherein even minor modifications in the heterocyclic structure can significantly impact the drug's efficacy. Among these, benzimidazoles are particularly significant. These class of compounds comprises a combination of the aromatic benzene ring and an imidazole ring. A significant natural form of benzimidazole found in nature is N-ribosyl-dimethyl benzimidazole, which plays a crucial role in coordinating to the cobalt metal in vitamin B12. Extensive biochemical and pharmacological research has demonstrated that benzimidazoles are highly effective against various strains of microorganisms. Furthermore, they have exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antihistamine, antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, antidiabetic and antiviral activities.
