Abstract

A series of new 6-substituted aminocarbonyl benzimidazole derivatives with 1, 4-disubsituted or 1, 5-disubsituted indole moiety and benzoic acid moiety were designed, synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated. Most of the synthesized compounds could bind to the AT1 receptor and decrease blood pressure significantly. Notably, 2e and 1h could obviously decrease MBP in a dose dependent manner. The maximal response lowered 57.9 ± 2.3 mmHg (2e) and 57.6 ± 1.9 mmHg (1h) of MBP at 10 mg/kg after oral administration, and the antihypertensive effect lasted beyond 24 h, which performed better than Losartan (Fig. 1). These results indicate that 2e and 1h are effective and long-lasting anti-hypertension drug candidates and deserve further investigation for therapeutic application.
