Abstract: In order to get some novel potent compounds with iNOS inhibitory activity for the treatment of septic shock and inflammation, 20 target compounds of S-alkyl(or aralkyl)-N-[4-(benzimidazole-2-mercapto) phenyl] isothioureas(6a-6j) and S-alkyl(or aralkyl)-1-alkyl(or aryl)-3-[4-(benzimidazole-2-mercapto) phenyl] isothioureas(8a-8j) were synthesized by two different synthetic methods from 2-mercaptobenzimidazole(1). Compounds 6a-6j were synthesized from 2-(4-aminophenylmercapto) benzimidazole(3) by reaction with benzoyLIsothiocyanate to form the corresponding benzoylthioureas 4 which was hydrolyzed with 2.0 mol/Lsodium hydroxide solution containing tetrahydrofuran, followed by S-alkylation with alkyLIodide or (substituted) benzyl halogen. Compounds 8a-8j were synthesized from compound 3 by reaction with alkyl(or aryl) isothiocyanate to form the corresponding 1,3-disubstituted thioureas 7 which was S-alkylated with alkyLIodide or (substituted) benzyl halogen. The intermediate 3 was synthesized from 2-mercaptobenzimidazole(1) by reaction with 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene to form 2-(4-nitrophenylmercapto)benzimidazole(2) which was reduced by iron powder and hydrochloric acid. The structures of these compounds were confirmed by IR, MS, 1HNMR and elemental analysis. The results of preliminary pharmacological test show that most of these compounds possess iNOS inhibitory activity, among which compounds 6b, 8d and 8f have a comparable activity to the control aminoguanidine.
