In order to get some novel compoundswith potent iNOS inhibitory activity for the treatment of septic shock and inflammation, 12 target compounds of S-alkyl (or aralkyl)-1-alkyl (or aryl)-3-[4-(5-methoxy (or chloro)-benzimidazole-2-mercapto)phenyl]isothioureas(5a~5l) were synthesized. Firstly, 2-mercapto-5-methoxy (or chloro)benzimidazole (1) were converted into 5-methoxy (or chloro)-2-(4-nitrophenylmercapto)benzimidazole (2) by condensation with 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene. Secondly, reductionof 2 afforded 5-methoxy (or chloro)-2-(4-aminophenylmercapto)benzimidazole (3). Then 3 were converted into corresponding 1,3-disubstituted thioureas 4 by reaction with alkyl (or aryl) isothiocyanate. Finally, the S-alkylation of 4 with alkyl iodide or (substituted)benzyl halogen was carried out to obtain the targetcompounds 5a~5l. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR, MS, 1H NMR spectra and elemental analysis. Theresults of preliminary pharmacological test showed that all of compounds possess higher iNOS inhibitory activity than the control aminoguanidine.

Key words: iNOS inhibitor, isothiourea, inflammation, septic shock
