Title: Synthesis and biological evaluations of novel benzimidazoles as potential antibacterial agents.

Authors: He Y, Yang J, Wu B, Risen L, Swayze EE.

Abstract: A series of novel benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized via parallel solution-phase chemistry. Many of these compounds were found to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Several analogues exhibited low micromolar minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria of clinical relevance and could serve as leads for further optimizations for antibacterial research.
