Gastrointestinal nematode infections are the main diseases in herds of small ruminants. Resistance to the main established drugs has become a worldwide problem. The purpose of this study is to obtain and evaluate the in vitro ovicidal and larvicidal activity of some 2-phenylbenzimidazole derivatives on susceptible and resistant strains of Teladorsagia circumcincta. Compounds were prepared by known procedures from substituted o-phenylenediamines and arylaldehydes or intermediate sodium 1-hydroxyphenylmethanesulfonate derivatives. Egg Hatch Test (EHT), Larval Mortality Test (LMT) and Larval Migration Inhibition Test (LMIT) were used in the initial screening of compounds at 50 μM concentration, and EC50 values were determined for the most potent compounds. Cytotoxicity evaluation of compounds was conducted on human Caco-2 and HepG2 cell lines to calculate their Selectivity Indexes (SI). At 50 μM concentration, nine out of twenty-four compounds displayed more than 98% ovicidal activity on a susceptible strain, and four of them showed more than 86% on one resistant strain. The most potent ovicidal benzimidazole (BZ) 3 showed EC50 = 6.30 μM, for the susceptible strain, while BZ 2 showed the lowest EC50 value of 14.5 μM for the resistant strain. Docking studies of most potent compounds in a modelled Teladorsagia tubulin indicated an inverted orientation for BZ 1 in the colchicine binding site, probably due to its fair interaction with glutamic acid at codon 198, which could justify its inactivity against the resistant strain of T. circumcincta.

Antimicrobial drug resistance is one of the most critical problems that plagued the human race in modern times. Discovery of novel antibiotics is important to counter this threat. Accordingly, herein we have reported the discovery of substituted benzimidazole class of molecules with antimicrobial property (specifically against Staphylococcus aureus). They were initially identified through a random screening and a novel catalytic synthetic strategy was utilized to access them. in vitro screening and phenotypic profiling revealed the antimicrobial nature. De novo transcriptome and gene analyses predicted the putative targets. This work provides a solid foundation for developing the benzimidazoles as a target specific antimicrobial preclinical candidate.

An operationally simple and user-friendly one-pot domino protocol for the synthesis of 2-aryl/hetaryl benzimidazoles has been devised from easily available and inexpensive 1,2-phenylenediamines and β-oxodithioesters. The strategic [4+1] heteroannulation i
