New benzimidazole-aldehyde hybrids as neuroprotectors with hypochlorite and superoxide radical-scavenging activity.

CONCLUSIONS: Our studies suggest that the benzimidazole-aldehyde hybrids act as direct ROS scavengers and membranes' stabilizers against free radicals. Thus, they play a role in the antioxidative defense system and have a promising potential as therapeutic neuroprotective agents for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.
