And i need to capture Bayer word.I tried this regex expression ( between "-" and ")" )

(?<=-)(.*)(?=\))

Answer 1

Here's a different regex to do what you are looking for:

-\s([^()]+)\)

You don't need regex for that, you can use LINQ:

string input = "test - qweqw(Barcelona - Bayer) - testestsetset";

string res = String.Join("", input.SkipWhile(c => c != '(')
                                  .SkipWhile(c => c != '-').Skip(1)
                                  .TakeWhile(c => c != ')'))
                   .Trim();

Console.WriteLine(res);  // Bayer
