2-Pyridinylmethylsulfinylbenzimidazoles are a type of chemical compound that consists of a benzimidazole ring, which is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound similar to benzene and pyridine, but with two nitrogen atoms in the six-membered ring. This benzimidazole ring is attached to a sulfinyl group (-S(=O)-), which is then connected to a 2-pyridinylmethyl group. The 2-pyridinylmethyl group consists of a pyridine ring with a methyl group attached to the 2nd carbon atom in the ring.
