    Abstract:
    [1,3,5]Triazino[1,2-a]benzimidazole-2-amines bearing heterocyclic moiety in 4-position were synthesized. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HRMS spectroscopy. The molecular geometry and electron structure of these molecules were theoretically studied using density functional theory (DFT) methods. The molecular structure of the synthesized fused triazinobenzimidazole was confirmed to correspond to the 3,4-dihydrotriazinobenzimidazole structure through the analysis of spectroscopic NMR data and DFT calculations. The antinematodic activity was evaluated in vitro on isolated encapsulated muscle larvae (ML) of Trichinella spiralis. The results showed that the tested triazinobenzimidazoles exhibit significantly higher efficiency than the conventional drug used to treat trichinosis, albendazole, at a concentration of 50 μg/mL. The compound 3c substituted with a thiophen-2-yl moiety exhibited the highest anthelmintic activity, with a larvicidal effect of 58.41% at a concentration of 50 μg/mL after 24 h of incubation. Following closely behind, the pyrrole analog 3f demonstrated 49.90% effectiveness at the same concentration. The preliminary structure-anti-T. spiralis activity relationship (SAR) of the analogues in the series was discussed. The cytotoxicity of the benzimidazole derivatives against two normal fibroblast cells (3T3 and CCL-1) and two cancer human cell lines (MCF-7 breast cancer cells and chronic myeloid leukemia cells AR-230) was evaluated using the MTT-dye reduction assay. The screening results indicated that the compounds showed no cytotoxicity against the tested cell lines. An in silico study of the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the novel synthesized fused triazinobenzimidazoles showed that they were characterized by a significant degree of drug-likeness and optimal properties for anthelmintic agents.
