Abstract

A sustainable green protocol has been developed for the metal-free sonochemical synthesis of 2-aryl-1H-benzimidazoles through the condensation of o-phenylenediamine and diverse aromatic aldehydes using L-aspartic acid as a novel recyclable organocatalyst. This methodology overcomes the shortcomings of utilizing harmful metal catalysts, resulting in eco-friendly protocol and mild reaction conditions with high atom efficiency. The molecular docking studies with DNA gyrase subunit B revealed strong binding interactions with a highest binding energy of –115.867 kcal/mol. The ADME properties of the synthesized compounds revealed their drug-likeness. The compounds displayed good to excellent antimicrobial activity.
