Page/Page column 102-103, (2010/01/29)
The present invention provides a compound represented by the formula wherein R1 is a hydrocarbon group optionally having substituent(s), amino optionally having substituent(s), hydroxy optionally having a substituent or a heterocyclic group optionally having substituent(s); R2 is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group optionally having substituent(s); Xa and Xb are each C, N, O or S; Xc and Xd are each C or N; m is 0-2; n is 1-3; ring A is a 5-membered ring optionally having substituent(s); ring B is a 6-membered ring optionally having substituent(s); and ring C is a 3- to 5-membered ring optionally having substituent(s), provided that when Xa, Xc and Xd are each C, then Xb is N or S, or a salt thereof, which is useful as an agent for the prophylaxis or treatment of a disease relating to an action of melatonin, and the like.

Benzimidazole 5-carboxamide derivatives from a combinatorial screening library were discovered as specific inhibitors of the NS5B polymerase of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Initial hit-to-lead activities taking advantage of high-throughput parallel synthetic techniques, identified a 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole 5-carboxylic acid scaffold as the minimum core for biological activity. Potent analogues in this series inhibit the polymerase at low micromolar concentrations and provide an attractive 'drug-like' lead structure for further optimization and the development of potential HCV therapeutics.
