A series of novel benzimidazole carbamates bearing indole moieties with sulphur or selenium atoms connecting the aromatic rings were synthesised and evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against three human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901. A-549 and HT-1080) using an MTT assay. Compounds 10a, 10b, 7a, 7b and 7f showed significant activities against these cell lines. The most potent compound in this series, 10a, was selected to investigate its antitumour mechanism. In addition, molecular docking studies suggested that compound 10a interacts very closely with the nocodazole docking pose through hydrogen bonds at the colchicine binding site of tubulin.
