α-Glucosidase inhibitors have emerged as crucial agents in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In the present study, a new series of coumarin-linked 2-phenylbenzimidazole derivatives 5a-m was designed, synthesized, and evaluated as anti-α-glucosidase agents. Among these derivatives, compound 5k (IC<sub>50</sub> = 10.8 µM) exhibited a significant inhibitory activity in comparison to the positive control acarbose (IC<sub>50</sub> = 750.0 µM). Through kinetic analysis, it was revealed that ...[more]
