Palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of 2-iodoimidazole have been studied to synthesize imidazole-containing protein farnesyltransferase inhibitors. The Suzuki coupling reaction proved to be very efficient to introduce functionalized alkyl chains at the 2-position of the imidazole ring and a new synthesis of the required alkenylboronates was realised by a reaction of cross metathesis. A...

The strategy of the nucleophilic substitution hydrogen (SNH) was first applied for metal-free C-H/C-H coupling reactions 4H-imidazole 3-oxides with indoles. As a result, series novel bifunctional azaheterocyclic derivatives were obtained in yields up to 95%. In silico experiments on molecular docking performed evaluate binding possibility synthesized small molecules selected biotargets (BACE1, ...

A new series of alkylthio imidazole analogues of captopril, an ACE inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension, was designed and synthesized in order to obtain agents more active than captopril with less side effects. All the compounds thus prepared were purified and characterized by IR, NMR and Mass analytical instruments.

Objective: Cancer is one of the major causes of death worldwide irrespective of the sex. The aim of the study was to design, synthesize, and identification of novel anti-proliferative agents that can potently target cancer. Methods: We are reporting the synthesis of the new series of N-substituted 2-(2-butyl-4-chloro-1H-imidazole-5-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives and evaluated for their an...

In the present paper, we report on the synthesis, and in vitro antiviral and cytostatic activities of a series of novel imidazole[4,5-e][1,3]diazepine-4,8-dione (compounds 9-11) and acyclic carbamoyl imino-ureido imidazole (compounds 12 and 13) derivatives. These new type of chemical entities showed no significant activity on the broad spectrum of DNA and RNA viruses. Results of antiproliferati...

Fungicidal activity of widely used imidazole antifungal drugs in topical applications is not so strong in spite of their fungistatic activities against dermatophytes and pathogenic yeasts. In order to improve fungicidal activity of imidazole antifungal agents, a series of novel imidazole derivatives having a hydrophobic substituent derived from isoprenoid were synthesized. The efficacy of these...
