New chiral aminoalcohol‐benzimidazole hybrids have been synthesized from commercially available aminoalcohols
[S(+)‐Phenylglycinol, S(−)‐ Phenylalaninol and S(+)‐ Leuicinol] and 2‐(chloromethyl)‐N‐tosyl‐1‐H‐benzimidazole. The synthesized compound were characterized by IR, NMR, and LC‐MS analysis. The antibacterial properties of aminoalcohol‐benzimidazole hybrid molecules 4 a, 4 b, and 4 c were investigated against both gram (+ve) and gram (‐ve) bacterial pathogens by the well‐diffusion method using several standarts. The cell‐based biological experiment was consistent with in silico studies. Furthermore, in silico studies revealed that all synthesized compounds could be suggested as potential drugs for inhibition of both peptide deformylase for bacteria and sterol 14α‐demethylase for yeast.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
