In continuation of our previous research, the synthesis of 13 2-(5'-nitro-2'-furyl or 2'-thienyl) benzimidazoles with different substituents in 5 position is described. The new compounds were tested in vitro against 5 (Gram+) and 4 (Gram-) strains and a mycete Candida Albicans. All the derivatives showed a certain degree of antibacterial and antimycotic activity, which in some cases was fairly good.

Article Synopsis
- Hypercytokinemia, or cytokine storm, complicates treatments for viral and bacterial infections like COVID-19 and increases thrombosis risk, highlighting the need for new anticoagulants.
- Current direct anticoagulants are limited in use for COVID-19 due to safety concerns, making the discovery of dual-action drugs with antiviral or antidiabetic properties critical, especially for patients with comorbidities like hypertension or diabetes.
- Novel compounds, particularly a specific triazolo-pyrimidine, show promising anticoagulant effects, outperforming existing medications like dabigatran etexilate and are especially effective during systemic inflammation.
Control of aflatoxin biosynthesis by sulfur containing benzimidazole derivatives: In-silico interaction, biological activity, and gene regulation of Aspergillus flavus.

Aspergillus flavus producing aflatoxins is one of the potent contaminants of raw food commodities during pre-and post-harvest crops. Aflatoxins are the group of secondary metabolites a subset of natural polyketides. Our major focus is on the inhibition of the biosynthesis pathway of aflatoxin by targeting the enzymes involved.

XenoAptamers are DNA fragments containing additional letters (unnatural bases, UBs) that bind specifically to their target proteins with high affinities (sub-nanomolar values). One of the UBs is the highly hydrophobic 7-(2-thienyl)imidazo[4,5-]pyridine (Ds), which significantly increases XenoAptamers' affinities to targets. Originally, Ds was developed as a third base pair with a complementary UB, 2-nitro-4-propynylpyrrole (Px), for replication, and thus it can be used for aptamer generation by an evolutional engineering method involving PCR amplification.

In this work, the mechanism underlying the anticancer activity of a photoactivatable Ir(III) compound of the type [Ir(C^N)(dppz)][PF] where C^N = 1-methyl-2-(2'-thienyl)benzimidazole (complex 1) was investigated. Complex 1 photoactivated by visible light shows potent activity against highly aggressive and poorly treatable Rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells, the most frequent soft tissue sarcomas of children. This remarkable activity of 1 was observed not only in RD cells cultured in 2D monolayers but, more importantly, also in 3D spheroids, which resemble in many aspects solid tumors and serve as a promising model to mimic the in vivo situation.

In this paper, we report design and synthesis of novel low bandgap small molecules, indigo-benzimidazole (Tyr-3) and indigo-schiff base (Tyr-4) type acceptors. In these structures, tert-butoxycarbonyl (t-BOC) group has been attached to indigo nitrogen atom in order to increase the solubility. UV-vis absorption spectra of Tyr-3 and Tyr-4 dyes exhibit wide absorption bands ranging from 350 to 600 nm, indicating the relatively low bandgap giving around 2.
