The application discloses a 4-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)
aniline derivative and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of biological medicines. A
structural formula is shown in the following formula I: wherein the R
substituent is selected from any one of
hydrogen,
halogen, a carboxyl group, a cyano group, a nitro group and an
alkoxy group. The application takes 4-position substituted o-phenylenediamine and 4-[bis(beta-chloroethyl)amino]
benzaldehyde as raw materials, and obtains a target molecule through a
condensation reaction. At present, similar
nitrogen mustard or
benzimidazole drug synthesis needs multiple steps of reaction, and separation and purification is complicated. The application has only one step of synthesis, a simple
separation method and low requirement on equipment.
In vitro anti-tumor experiments show that the target compounds synthesized by the application all have obvious anti-tumor effects, exhibit strong pharmacological activities in inhibiting tumor
cell proliferation, and have wide research and development value in the field of anti-tumor drugs.
