Benzoxazoles, benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles having substituents on the azole and benzene nuclei were synthesized evaluated for antifungal, insecticidal and herbicidal activities. It was found that benzimidazoles tended to exhibit antifungal activity while benzothiazoles tended to show herbicidal activity. Chloro, trifluoromethyl, methoxy and ethoxy groups at the 5 position were potent substituents, and the 2-pyridyl group at the 2 position is a common structural unit. Among several active derivatives, 7-chloro-2-(2-pyridyl) benzimidazole and 2-(2-pyridyl)-5-trifluoromethylbenzothiazole exhibited significant activity against Panonycus citri.

A useful approach for the synthesis of pharmacologically active tetrahydropyridinylbenzimidazoles is described. 2-Pyridin-3-ylbenzimidazoles 3a-d have been synthesized by condensation of 3-pyridinecarbox-aldehyde 1 with substituted 1,2-phenylenediamines 2a-d following oxidative cyclization with iodobenzene diacetate. Methylation of 3a-d with iodomethane and potassium hydroxide, subsequent formation
