Potential Anticancer Agents From Benzimidazole Derivatives

Abstract

The usage of heterocyclic compounds in the discipline of Medicinal Chemistry is increasing with each day, because heterocyclic compounds are a component of the structure of many biological materials. Because of its diverse pharmacological properties, benzimidazole, a heterocyclic molecule produced by the fusion of benzene and imidazole, has received substantial importance in the area of medicinal chemistry. Over the last century, scientists have been researching the characteristics of benzimidazole and its derivatives. Benzimidazole derivatives have found practical uses in an array of disciplines and exhibit a wide range of pharmacological actions such as antihypertensive, anticancer, antiviral, antidiabetic, proton pump inhibitors, anthelmintic, anti-microbial, analgesic, and so on.
