The preferred compounds of the present invention are those of formula I in which
R.sub.3 is hydrogen, methyl, hydroxymethyl, CO.sub.2 CH.sub.3, CH.sub.2 CO.sub.2 CH.sub.3, mercaptomethylphenyl, --S--R.sub.7 or --CH.sub.2 --S--R.sub.8 ;
R.sub.4 is hydrogen, neryl, citronellyl, octyl, cyclohexyl, geranyl or a substituted heteroaryl of the formula ##STR9##

R.sub.6 is hydrogen, halogen, methoxy or trifluoromethyl;
R.sub.7 is geranyl, octyl, neryl, citronellyl 1-, 2- or 3- picolyl or CH.sub.2 CO.sub.2 CH.sub.3 ; and
R.sub.8 is hydrogen, acetyl, C.sub.1-15 straight or branched chain alkyl, allyl, or heteroaryl such as thienyl, pyridyl, furyl and pyrimidinyl.
The compounds of formula I in which Z is --N--R.sub.4, R.sub.3 is --S--R.sub.7 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are combined to form the six-membered ring ##STR10## in which X is C are prepared by Scheme I shown below. ##STR11##
The synthesis of these compounds was accomplished by treatment of the appropriately substituted 2-mercaptobezimidazole (1) with a chloride or bromide of the R.sub.7 group in sodium hydroxide/methanol to give the appropriately substituted 2-substituted thiobenzimidazole (2). The reaction of the 2-substituted thiobenzimidazole (2) with sodium hydride in dimethylformamide and the appropriate halide gave the N-1 substituted 2-substituted thiobenzimidazole (3). 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole was obtained from Aldrich Chemical Co., Milwaukee, Wis., and 5-fluoro-6-chloro-2-mercaptobenzimidazole was obtained from Maybridge Chemical Co., U.K. For synthesis of 5-chloro- and 5-methoxy-2-mercaptobenzimidazole, see Varima, R. S., J. Indian Chemical Soc. 62, 73 (1985), and for synthesis of 5-trifluoromethyl-2-mercaptobenzimidazole, see Senn-Bilfingen, J., DE 3240298 (1983).
The compounds of formula I in which Z is --N--R.sub.4, R.sub.3 is other than --S--R.sub.7 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are combined to form the six-membered ring ##STR12## in which X is C are prepared as shown below in Scheme II. These compounds are also recognized as the benzimidazoles of formula IB. ##STR13##
An appropriate 2-substituted benzimidazole (4) is reacted with sodium hydride and a chloride of the R.sub.4 group in dimethylformamide The N-1(R.sub.4 -substituted)-2-substituted benzimidazole (5) is the resultant product.
The compounds of formula I in which Z is CH.dbd.CH--, R.sub.3 is --S--R.sub.7 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are combined to form the six-membered ring in which X is N are prepared as shown below in Scheme III. These compounds are also recognized as the mercaptoimidazopyridines of formula IC. ##STR14##
An R.sub.4 -substituted 2,3-diaminopyridine (6) is reacted with carbon disulfide in a potassium hydroxide/ethanol solvent to yield a substituted 2-mercaptoimidazopyridine (7). The substituted 2-mercaptoimidazopyridine (7) is then reacted with a chloride of the R.sub.7 group as defined above, in a sodium hydroxide/methanol solvent to produce the 2-mercapto-substituted-imidazopyridine (8).
The compounds of formula I in which Z is --N--R.sub.4, R.sub.3 is --S--R.sub.7 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 combine to form a double bond are prepared as shown below in Scheme IV. These compounds are also recognized as the mercaptoimidazoles of formula ID. ##STR15##
A 1-substituted-2-mercaptomidazole (9) is reacted with the chloride of the R.sub.7 group in a basic solvent of sodium hydroxide and methanol to yield the 1-(R.sub.4 -substituted)-2-mercapto(R.sub.7 -substituted)imidazole (10).
The compounds of formula I in which Z is --CH.dbd.CH--, R.sub.3 is --CH.sub.2 --S--R.sub.8 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 combine to form a double bond are prepared as described below in Scheme V. The compounds are also recognized as the thiomethylpyridines of formula IE. ##STR16##
The reaction of 2-picolylchloride (11) with thioacetic acid (12) in Et.sub.3 N/CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 gives 2-picolylthioacetate (13). The 2-picolylthioacetate (13) is then reacted with a chloride of the R.sub.8 group in NaOH/MeOH to give the R.sub.8 -substituted thiomethylpyridine (14).
Pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound of the present invention as the active ingredient in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutical carrier can be prepared according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques. The carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration, e.g., intravenous, oral or parenteral. In preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed, such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols, flavoring agents, preservatives, coloring agents and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations (such as, for example, suspensions, elixirs and solutions); or carriers such as starches, sugars, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of oral solid preparations (such as, for example, powders, capsules and tablets). Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. If desired, tablets may be sugar-coated or enteric-coated by standard techniques. For parenterals, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, though other ingredients, for example, to aid solubility or for preservative purposes, may be included. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared, in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. The pharmaceutical compositions will generally contain per dosage unit, e.g., tablet, capsule, powder, injection, teaspoonful and the like, from about 0.5 to about 100 mg/kg, and preferably from about 1 to about 5 mg/kg of the active ingredient.
The following examples describe the invention in greater particularity and are intended to illustrate but not limit the invention.

Isolated Parietal Cell Assay
Using the procedures described in Batzri, S. et al., Biochemica et Biophysica Acta 508, 328 (1978), and Soll, H., Am. J. Physiol. 238, G366 (1980), the example compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit .sup.14 C-aminopyrine accumulation in stimulated parietal cells.
Parietal cells were isolated from the fundic mucosa of rabbit stomachs by a four-stage collagenese digestion process. The supernatant fraction from the last two stages of this process contain the individual parietal cells.
This cell suspension was centrifuged and reconstituted in a modified Hank's buffer to contain 1-2.times.10.sup.6 cells/ml. The cells in this suspension were then evaluated for their ability to accumulate .sup.14 C-aminopyrine (.sup.14 C-AP), a weak base which has been shown to accumulate in acidic environments such as the parietal cell. The accumulation of .sup.14 C-AP is stimulated by histamine, and is blocked by H.sub.2 antagonists.
The cells were incubated with 2.times.10.sup.6 cpm .sup.14 C-AP, with various concentrations of histamine, 1.times.10.sup.-5 M isobutylmethylanthine, and example compounds added in a 20 .mu.l volume of buffer or dimethylsulfoxide. The flasks were incubated in a shaking water bath at 37.degree. C. and gassed with 95% O.sub.2, 5% CO.sub.2 for 20 minutes. Three aliquots were then taken from each flask, and cell pellets were collected by centrifugation. The pellets were then solubilized with Protosol (NEN) and the radioactivity determined by liquid scintillation spectrometry.
The data for the example compounds is presented in Table 1 below as the IC.sub.50, i.e. the concentration of compound required to inhibit .sup.14 C-AP accumulation in the stimulated parietal cell by 50%.

Pharmac. 82, 651 (1984), the example compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit the H.sup.+ /K.sup.+ ATPase enzyme in the vesicular membranes from rabbit gastric mucosa. The H.sup.+ /K.sup.+ ATPase enzyme activity is present in microsomes prepared from a crude homogenate of rabbit gastric mucosa using differential centrifugation.
Assays were conducted in duplicate tubes in a 1 mL reaction volume consisting of 50 mM Tris buffer, 2mM MgCl.sub.2, .+-.10 mM KCl, 10 .mu.l of example compound in dimethylsulfoxide and 20-30 .mu.g of protein. The tubes were preincubated for 10 minutes in a 37.degree. C. shaking water bath before the substrate, (Na.sub.2 ATP) was added. The mixture was then incubated for 15 minutes at 37.degree. C. The reaction was stopped with 1 mL of 14% TCA and the tubes were centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 minutes.
The amount of inorganic phosphate (Pi) present in each sample was compared to a potassium phosphate standard curve. The data for the example compounds is presented in Table 1 below as the IC.sub.50, i.e. the concentration of compound required to inhibit the K+ stimulated response by 50%.
