Objectives:
In this study, some novel 2-(2-phenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)-N'-(arylmethylene) acetohydrazide derivatives (1-12) were designed and synthesized.
Materials And Methods:
Compounds 1-12 were obtained by condensing 2-(2-phenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)acetohydrazide (III) with the corresponding aromatic aldehyde derivatives in the presence of catalytic amounts of hydrochloric acid in ethanol.
Results:
Following the structure elucidation, epidermal growth factor receptor kinase inhibitor activity was measured. The ADP-GloTM kinase assay determines kinase activity based on the quantification of the amount of ADP produced during a kinase reaction.
Conclusion:
Almost all of the compounds' kinase inhibitor activities were rather limited.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
