Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVES There are different approaches to the synthesis of benzimidazole. In this article, five new benzimidazole derivatives, BMPO, Me-BMPO, Di-MeBMPO, F-BMPO and Cl-BMPO where (BMPO=3-[(1H)-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl]pyridin-2(1H)-one), have been prepared. Another study was carried out on luminescence properties and their potential applications for the detection of transition metal ions. MATERIALS AND METHODS From the one-pot synthesis approach, all the derivatives of the benzimidazole compounds were obtained. The compounds were characterized using HRMS, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, and X-ray crystallography. Herein, a mechanism has been deciphered by predicting the release of HCl(g). RESULTS All compounds showed a strong deep blue emission when dissolved in dimethylacetamide (DMA), with emission wavelengths at 423, 428, 435, 423, and 421 nm, and half-times of 3.64, 2.77, 2, 19, 3.42 and 3.52 ns, respectively. In addition, their emission quantum yields were determined to be 72, 50, 42, 73 and 80%. CONCLUSION Five new benzimidazole derivatives, BMPO, Me-BMPO, Di-MeBIPO, F-BIPO, and Cl-BIPO, have been successfully synthesized by the one-pot synthesis method, and their structures are characterized and confirmed. The compounds exhibited exceptional luminescence by emitting a strong blue light in DMA with high fluorescence quantum yields between 42~80%.

Abstract
The acidity constants of protonated 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)ethyl]-2-amino-6-dimethylaminopurine (H3(PME2A6DMAP)+) are considered, and the stability constants of the M(H;PME2A6DMAP)+ and M(PME2A6DMAP) complexes (M2+ = Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, or Cd2+) were measured by potentiometric pH titrations in aqueous solution (25 °C; I = 0.1 mol/L, NaNO3). In the M(H;PME2A6DMAP)+ species, H+ and M2+ (mainly outersphere) are at the phosphonate group; this is relevant for phosphoryl-diester bridges in nucleic acids because, in the present system, there is no indication for a M2+–purine binding. This contrasts, for example, with the complexes formed by 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)ethyl]adenine, M(H;PMEA)+, where M2+ is mainly situated at the adenine residue. Application of log [Formula: see text] vs. [Formula: see text] plots for simple phosph(on)ate ligands, R–PO32− (R being a residue that does not affect M2+ binding), proves that all M(PME2A6DMAP) complexes have larger stabilities than what would be expected for a M2+–phosphonate coordination. Comparisons with M(PME–R) complexes, where R is a noncoordinating residue of the (phosphonomethoxy)ethane chain, allow one to conclude that the increased stability is due to the formation of five-membered chelates involving the ether–oxygen of the –CH2–O–CH2–PO32− residue: the percentages of formation of these M(PME2A6DMAP)cl/O chelates, which occur in intramolecular equilibria, vary between 20% (Sr2+, Ba2+) and 50% (Zn2+, Cd2+), up to a maximum of 67% (Cu2+). Any M2+ interaction with N3 or N7 of the purine moiety, as in the parent M(PMEA) complexes, is suppressed by the (C2)NH2 and (C6)N(CH3)2 substituents. This observation, together with the previously determined stacking properties, offers an explanation why PME2A6DMAP2– has remarkable therapeutic effects.

Abstract
The hairpin ribozyme is a small catalytic RNA with reversible phosphodiester cleavage activity. Biochemical and structural studies exclude a requirement for divalent metal cation cofactors and implicate one active site nucleobase in particular, G8, in the catalytic mechanism. Our previous work demonstrated that the cleavage activity that is lost when G8 is replaced by an abasic residue is restored when certain nucleobases are provided in solution. The specificity and pH dependence of exogenous nucleobase rescue were consistent with several models of the rescue mechanism, including general acid base catalysis, electrostatic stabilization of negative charge in the transition state or a requirement for protonation to facilitate exogenous nucleobase binding. Detailed analyses of exogenous nucleobase rescue for both cleavage and ligation reactions now allow us to refine models of the rescue mechanism. Activity increased with increasing pH for both unmodified ribozyme reactions and unrescued reactions of abasic variants lacking G8. This similarity in pH dependence argues against a role for G8 as a general base catalyst, because G8 deprotonation could not be responsible for the pH-dependent transition in the abasic variant. Exogenous nucleobase rescue of both cleavage and ligation activity increased with decreasing pH, arguing against a role for rescuing nucleobases in general acid catalysis, because a nucleobase that contributes general acid catalysis in the cleavage pathway should provide general base catalysis in ligation. Analysis of the concentration dependence of cytosine rescue at high and low pH demonstrated that protonation promotes catalysis within the nucleobase-bound ribozyme complex but does not stabilize nucleobase binding in the ground state. These results support an electrostatic stabilization mechanism in which exogenous nucleobase binding counters negative charge that develops in the transition state.

Abstract
The synthesis of (1H-benzimidazol-2-yl-methyl)phosphonic acid, H2(Bimp)+/-, is described: 2-chloromethylbenzimidazole was reacted with ethylchloroformate to give 1-carboethoxy-2-chloromethylbenzimidazole which was treated with trimethyl phosphite and after hydrolysis with aqueous HBr H2(Bimp)+/- was obtained. In H2(Bimp)+/- one proton is at the N-3 site and the other at the phosphonate group; both acidity constants were determined in aqueous solution by potentiometric pH titrations (25 degrees C; I = 0.1 M, NaNO3) and this furnished the pKa values of 5.37 +/- 0.02 and 7.41 +/- 0.02, respectively. The acidity constant for the release of the primary proton from the P(O)(OH)2 group of H3(Bimp)+ was estimated: pKa = 1.5 +/- 0.2. Moreover, Bimp2- can be further deprotonated at its neutral (N-1/N-3)H site to give the benzimidazolate residue, but this reaction occurs only in strongly alkaline solution (KOH); application of the H_ scale developed by G. Yagil (J. Phys. Chem., 1967, 71, 1034) together with UV spectrophotometric measurements gave pKa = 14.65 +/- 0.12. Comparisons with acidity constants taken from the literature show that this latter pKa value is far too large and this allows the conclusion that an intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed between the (N-1/N-3)H site and the phosphonate group of Bimp2-; the formation degree of this hydrogen-bonded isomer is estimated to be 98 +/- 2%. The general relevance of this and the other results are shortly discussed and the species distribution for the Bimp system in dependence on pH is provided.

Abstract
The metal ion-binding properties of imidazole-4-acetate (ImA-), 4(5)-aminoimidazole-5(4)-carboxamide (AImC), 2,2'biimidazole(BiIm) (I. Török et al., J. Inorg. Biochem. 71 (1998) 7-14), and bis (imidazol-2-yl)methane(BiImM) (K. Várnagy et al., J. Chem. Soc., Dalton Trans. (1994) 2939-2945) have been evaluated by using the recently published stability constants and by applying the recently established log K(ML)M versus pK(HL)H straight-line plots (L. E. Kapinos et al., Inorg. Chim. Acta 280 (1998) 50-56) which hold for simple imidazole-type ligands. The indicated analysis regarding the intramolecular equilibrium between a monodentatally imidazole-nitrogen-coordinated (open) species and a chelated isomer provides helpful insights, e.g., the formation degree of chelates is more favored if six-membered rings can be formed, as in the case with M(BiImM)2+ compared to M(BiIm)2+, though in both instances the formation degree of the chelates is large. The formation degree of chelates in the M(ImA)+ complexes increases in the series Zn(ImA)+ (87%)<Ni(ImA)+ (96%)<Cu(ImA)+ (99.5%). A carbonyl oxygen, if sterically favorably positioned as in the M (AImC)2+ complexes, may also participate well in chelate formation. In this way a carbonyl group can certainly be activated via metal ion coordination and become ready for further reactions. For Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ the formation degree of the chelated M(AImC)2+ isomers varies between about 30 and 75%. In all of the so-called 'open' species the metal ion is solely coordinated to a pyridine-like nitrogen of the imidazole residue. Some further observations of biological interest are indicated.
