4-methoxyphenyl benzimidazole

Chemical Name 1-[(4-Fluorophenyl)methyl] -N-[1 -[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl] -4-piperi-dinyl] -1 H-benzimidazol-2-amine... 

A mixture of 2.3 parts of 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl methanesulfonate, 4.9 parts of 1-[(4-fluorophenyOmethyl] -N-(4-piperidinyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-amine dihydrobromide, 3.2 parts of sodium carbonate, 0.1 part of potassium iodide and 90 parts of N,N-dimethylformamide is stirred overnight at 70°C. The reaction mixture is poured onto water. The product is extracted with methylbenzene. The extract is washed with water,dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue is purified by column-chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloro-methane and methanol (98 2 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions are collected and the eluent is evaporated. The residue is crystallized from 2,2 -oxybispropane, yielding 2.2 parts (48%) of 1 -(4-fluorophenvlmethyl)-N-[1 - [2-(4-methoxvphenyl)ethvl] -4-piperidinyl] -1H-benzlmidazol-2-amine MP 149.1°C.

The invention [87] relates to the discovery that specific adamantyl or adamantyl group derivatives containing retinoid-related compounds induce apoptosis of cancer cells and therefore may be used for the treatment of cancer, including advanced cancer. It has been shown that such adamantyl compounds, e.g., 2-[3-(l-adamantyl)-4-methoxyphenyl]-5-benzimidazole carboxylic acid 135), can be used to treat or prevent cervical cancers.
