Benzimidazole is a benzo derivative of imidazole. It is a kind of bicyclic aromatic organic compounds, which is formed by fusing a six-membered benzene ring and five-membered imidazole at positions 4 and 5 of imidazole ring. It is an important pharmacophore of many biologically active heterocyclic compounds with various pharmacological activities. Benzimidazoles and their derivatives have developed into dynamic heterocyclic systems due to their potency in a variety of biologically active compounds such as anticancer, bactericidal and antiviral drugs. Benzimidazoles are a class of therapeutic motifs with broad relevance in medicinal chemistry.
Potent IRAK-4 inhibitors have been reported by several groups including some structurally related benzimidazoles as well as alternative fused heterocycles such as the imidazopyridine and imidazopyridazine. Such compounds are reported to have IRAK-1 and IRAK-4 activity with varying degrees of selectivity.
