Abstract

Ingle R.G.*andMagar D.D

The present review article is concerned about the heterocyclic chemistry of benzimidazole synthesis and

reactions with nucleophilic reagent, arynes and free radicals, oxidation; reduction in the rev

iew article

emphasis is given on potential biological activities of benzimidazole derivatives. These exhibit many

biological activities like antiulcer, antihelmintic, antipsychotic, antiprotozoal, antifungal.etc.

Benzimidazole is important lead owing to it

s inherent properties and therapeutic action
