A series of novel benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS, IR and HRMS spectra. All the new compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities in vitro by two-fold serial dilution technique. Bioactive assay manifested that the bis-benzimidazole derivative 11d and its hydrochloride 13b exhibited remarkable antimicrobial activities, which were comparable or even better than the ...
