The synthesis of a series N-(4-piperidinyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-amines and the preliminary evaluation of their in vitro and in vivo antihistaminic activity are described. Cyclodesulfurization of (2-aminophenyl)thioureas with mercury(II) oxide resulted in 2-aminobenzimidazole intermediates, which were monoalkylated on the endo-nitrogen atom. After deprotection of the piperidine nitrogen atom with 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid solution, the title compounds were obtained by three different methods, viz. alkylation, reductive amination, or oxirane ring-opening reactions. The in vivo antihistaminic activity was evaluated by the compound 48/80 induced lethality test in rats and histamine-induced lethality test in guinea pigs after oral and/or subcutaneous administration. The duration of action, for a selected number of compounds, was studied in the guinea pig. The phenylethyl derivatives showed the most potent antihistamine properties after oral administration in both animal species.
