A series of benzimidazole derivatives, being potent modulators of human TNFα activity, are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of various human ailments, including autoimmune and inflammatory disorders; neurological and neurodegenerative disorders; pain and nociceptive disorders; cardiovascular disorders; metabolic disorders; ocular disorders; and oncological disorders.
Four Zn(II) coordination complexes, namely [Zn(pmbm)(2)(tpa)]center dot H2O}(n) (1), [Zn(pmbm)(phda)]center dot 2(H2O)}(n) (2), [Zn(pmbm)(aze)](n) (3), [Zn(pmbm)(1,4-ndc)]center dot 2(CH3OH)}(n) (4) [pmbm = 1-(4-pyridylmethyl)-benzimidazole, H(2)tpa = terephthalic acid, H(2)phda = phenylenediacetic acid, H(2)aze = azelaic acid, 1,4-ndcH(2) = 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid] have been synthesized by solution phase ultrasonic reactions of Zn(AC)(2)center dot 2H(2)O with pmbm and various dicarboxylates ligands under the ammoniacal condition. All the complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibit one-dimensional chains structure and complex 3 and 4 are two-dimensional sheets structure with (4,4) topology. Complexes 1-4 spanning from one-dimensional chains to two-dimensional sheets suggest that dicarboxylates play significant roles in the formation of such coordination architectures. The photoluminescences of the complexes were also investigated in the solid state at room temperature. (c) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

With the ligand: N-(4-pyridylmethyl)benzimidazole having some flexibility and spacial hindrance, one-dimensional double helix with the chirality, ([AgL] center dot NO3). (1), which was synthesized by the diffusion reaction in a U-tube with H2O as diffusion mediate, is constructed by two single-helical chains with the same chirality through van der Waals forces. But the compound 1 is racemic. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

In our efforts to investigate the relationships between the structures of ligands and their complexes, two structurally related ligands, 1-(2-pyridylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (L-1) and 1-(4-pyridylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (L-2), and their four complexes, [Zn(L-1)(2)Cl-2] (1), [Hg(L-1)Br-2](infinity) (2), [Zn(L-2)Cl-2](CH3CN)}(infinity) (3) and [Hg(L-2)Br-2](2)(CH3CN)(2) (4) were synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Structural analyses show that 1 has a mononuclear structure, and 2 and 3 both take 1D structure. While 4 takes a dinuclear structure. 1, 2 and 4 were further linked into higher-dimensional supramolecular networks by weak interactions, such as C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl and C-H center dot center dot center dot Br H-bonding, C-H center dot center dot center dot pi, and pi center dot center dot center dot pi stacking interactions. The structural differences of 1-4 may be attributed to the difference of the spatial positions of the terminal N donor atoms in the pendant pyridyl groups in L-1 and L-2, in which the pyridine rings may act as the directing group for coordination and the benzimidazole rings act as the directing group for pi center dot center dot center dot pi stacking and C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions. The luminescent properties of the corresponding complexes and ligands have been further investigated. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
