Abstract
Some new 2-substituted benzimidazoles were synthesizsed by the condensation of various clinically used NSAID's and antibacterial agents with different substituted o-phenylenediamine dihydro-chlorides in presence of ethylene glycol. The structures of the title compounds were derived from elemental analysis, IR, H-1 NMR and mass spectral data. The anti inflammatory, analgesic, anticonvulsant and antimicrobial activity of these compounds are also reported.
