Abstract

A novel series of 2 (2-aminoethyl)-1H-Benzimidazole was synthesized. The molecular docking study of these compound was performed at the active site of the β tubulin receptor. The synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral analysis (IR, 1H NMR). The screening of synthesized compound for in-vitro anthelmintic activity was studied using albendazole as reference drug. All compounds have shown binding ability at the active site of receptor and posses anthelmintic activity comparable to albendazole.

Keywords: 2(2-aminoethyl)-1H-Benzimidazole, ? tubulin receptor, anthelmintic activity.
