New Pyrazolo-Benzimidazole Mannich Bases with Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activities.

ABSTRACT: A new series of pyrazolo-benzimidazole hybrid Mannich bases were synthesized, characterized by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, IR, UV-Vis, MS, and elemental analysis. In vitro cytotoxicity of the new compounds studied on fibroblast cells showed that the newly synthesized pyrazolo-benzimidazole hybrid derivatives were noncytotoxic until the concentration of 1 μM and two compounds presented a high degree of biocompatibility. The antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of the newly synthesized compounds was assayed on Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC29212, and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853, Escherichia coli ATCC25922 strains. All synthesized compounds 5a-g are more active against all three teste
