Benzothiazole benzimidazole (S)-isothiazolidinone ((S)-IZD) derivatives 5 were discovered through a peptidomimetic modification of the tripeptide (S)-IZD protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitor 1. These derivatives are potent, competitive, and reversible inhibitors of PTP1B with improved caco-2 permeability. An X-ray co-crystal structure of inhibitor 5/PTP1B at 2.2A resolution demonstrated that the benzothiazole benzimidazole forms bi-dentate H-bonds to Asp48, and the benzothiazole interacts with the surface of the protein in a solvent exposed region towards the C-site. The design, synthesis, and SAR of this novel series of benzothiazole benzimidazole containing (S)-IZD inhibitors of PTP1B are presented herein.

Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are a class of homodimeric ligands that bind to their receptors (VEGFRs) to carryout physiological and pathological angiogenesis essential for regulating homeostasis of body. Overexpression of VEGF results in metastasis of benign tumor into malignant tumor. An active role of VEGFR-2 in cancer angiogenesis makes it a major target for cancer therapy.

Despite the great effort that has gone into developing new molecules as multitarget compounds to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD), none of these have been approved to treat this disease. Therefore, it will be interesting to determine whether benzazoles such as benzimidazole, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole, employed as pharmacophores, could act as multitarget drugs. AD is a multifactorial disease in which several pharmacological targets have been identified-some are involved with amyloid beta (Aβ) production, such as beta secretase (BACE1) and beta amyloid aggregation, while others are involved with the cholinergic system as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butirylcholinesterase (BChE) and nicotinic and muscarinic receptors, as well as the hyperphosphorylation of microtubule-associated protein (tau).

We have developed one thermal and one light-mediated method for direct Minisci-type C-H amidation of 1,3-azoles, which are applicable to thiazoles, benzothiazoles, benzimidazoles, and for the first time, imidazoles. The new visible light-mediated approach can be rendered photosensitiser/photocatalyst-free and likely proceeds an electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex, the first direct Minisci-type amidation to do so.

The cleavage of carbophosphinocarbenes and carbodicarbenes with nitrous oxide (NO) leads to the formation of room-temperature stable diazoalkenes. The utility of PhP/N and NHC/N ligand exchange reactions were demonstrated by accessing novel benzimidazole- and benzothiazole derived diazoalkenes, which are not accessible by the current state-of-the-art methods. The stable diazoalkenes subsequently allow further ligand exchange reactions at C(0) with carbon monoxide, isocyanide, or a diamidocarbene (DAC).

This study elucidates the mechanisms and principles governing chemoselectivity in synthesizing two distinct N-heterocycles, benzimidazole thiazine and benzothiazole imidazole, through BF•OEt-catalyzed cyclization reactions of propargyl alcohols with benzimidazole thiols. Employing density functional theory calculations, we highlight the crucial role of fluorine source in influencing chemoselectivity. In DCM, BF, as the catalytic center, coordinates with propargyl alcohol's hydroxyl group to form a precursor.
