By keeping these things in mind we have designed and synthesized a new series of amide and sulfonamide coupled thiophene. A series of novel substituted 3-sulfamoylbenzo[b]thiophene-4- carboxamide molecules containing sulfonamide and amide group were designed, synthesized and used for anti-proliferative activity study. Methods: The final compounds 16-36 were synthesized by using series of reactions comprising sulfonation, sulfonamide coupling, hydrolysis and peptide coupling. The yields of compounds 16- 36 are in the range of 90-98%. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated and confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, LCMS and the purity was checked through HPLC analysis. The compounds were further tested for their in vitro anticancer activity against a series of cell lines A549, HeLa, MCF-7 and Du-145. Results: The intermediates 8-13, 15 and final compounds 16-36 were synthesized in good yields. The synthesized compounds were further tested for their anticancer activity and most of compounds showed moderate to good anticancer activity against all four cell lines. Conclusion: We have synthesized 21 compounds and were screened for anticancer activity against MCF-7, HeLa, A-549 and Du-145 cancer cell lines. Most of the compounds were active for tested cell lines with IC50 value in the range of 1.81 to 9.73 μM.

Objective: The study was planned to investigate antioxidant and anticancer activities with the preliminary phytochemical analysis of methanolic extracts of Vitex negundo (V. negundo), Lantana camara (L. camara) and Bauhania variegata (B. variegata) plants leaf extracts.Methods: Phytochemical evaluation was performed for all the extracts, as per the standard methods. In vitro antioxidant activities were performed by using DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2, 2'-Azino-Bis-3-Ethylbenzothiazoline-6-Sulfonic Acid) and FRAP (Ferric reducing antioxidant power assay) method and compared with standard antioxidants. The anticancer activity of plant extract was assessed using MTT colorimetric assay.Results: The study of preliminary phytochemical proved the existence of alkaloids, flavonoids and phenolic types of phytochemicals in high amount. Methanolic extract of L. camara shows minimum IC50 value for DPPH assay (48.75±2.34 µg/ml) and FRAP assay (274.66±3.65 µg/ml). In ABTS assay B. variegata extract exhibit minimum IC50 value (60.48±3.01 µg/ml). Lower the IC50 value of extract, higher the effectiveness of the plant. Methanolic extract of all plants methanolic extracts showed anticancer activity against SH-SY-5Y cells (human neuroblastoma cell) but V. negundo was more effective against SH-SY-5Y cells with IC50 value (209 µg/ml) compared to remaining extracts.Conclusion: The current finding accomplished the in vitro activities, so that plant could be a superior source of antioxidant and anticancer drugs. But further in vivo assessment was needed before adding it into the pharma industry.

Starting materials of phosphasugars, 1-phenyl-2-phospholene 1-oxides, were prepared from dienes and phenylphosphonous dichloride (dichlorophenylphosphine). Several substituted novel phosphasugars (3- or 4-halo-substituted)-1-phenyl-2-phospholene 1-oxides as well as 1-phenyl-2-phospholane 1-oxides were prepared from 2-phospholenes. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antitumor activities against the leukemia cell lines (U937 and K562) by in vitro 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. 2,3,4-Tribromo-3-methyl-1-phenylphospholane 1-oxide showed superior antitumor activity against U937 and K562 cell lines in a comparative evaluation with Glivec. The analysis by flow cytometry implied that 2,3-dibromo-3-methyl-1-phenylphospholane 1-oxide induced apoptosis to leukemia cell lines.

Indoles derived from both natural sources or artificial synthetic methods have been known to interact with aryl hydrocarbon receptors (AhR), and exhibit anticancer activity. In light of these attractive properties, a series of hybrid molecules with structural features of indoles, i.e., those bearing a pyrazoline nucleus, were evaluated for their enhanced anticancer activity. The designed molecules were subjected to molecular docking in order to screen for potential AhR interacting compounds, and the identified indolyl dihydropyrazole derivatives were synthesized. The synthesized compounds were characterized, and their cytotoxicity was evaluated against four human cancer cell lines using the MTT assay. Based on the Glide g-score, H-bonding interactions and bonding energy of 20 candidate molecules were selected for further analysis from the 64 initially designed molecules. These candidate molecules have shown promising anti-proliferative activity against the cell lines tested. Among these candidate molecules, the compounds with hydroxy phenyl substitution on the pyrazoline ring have shown potent activity across all the tested cell lines. The designed scaffold was proven effective for screening potential candidate molecules with anticancer properties, and may be further optimized structurally for yielding the ideal anti-tumorigenic compound for the treatment of various cancers.

Background: In medicinal chemistry, thiazoles have gained great importance in antifungal and anticancer drug design and development. Objectives: The aim of this study was to synthesize new quinoline-based thiazolyl hydrazone derivatives and evaluate their anticandidal and anticancer effects. Methods: New thiazolyl hydrazone derivatives were evaluated for their anticandidal effects using disc diffusion method. Ames MPF assay was carried out to determine the genotoxicity of the most effective antifungal derivative. MTT assay was also performed to assess the cytotoxic effects of the compounds on A549 human lung adenocarcinoma, HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma, MCF- 7 human breast adenocarcinoma and NIH/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast (healthy) cell lines. Methods: Results: 4-(4-Fluorophenyl)-2-(2-((quinolin-4-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl)thiazole (4) showed antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Candida krusei in the concentration of 1 mg/mL. In MTT and Ames MPF tests, it was determined that compound 4 did not show cytotoxic and genotoxic effects. MTT assay indicated that 4-(naphthalen-2-yl)-2-(2-((quinolin-4-yl)methylene) hydrazinyl)thiazole (10) showed more selective anticancer activity than cisplatin against A549 and MCF-7 cell lines. Besides, 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(2-((quinolin-4-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl)thiazole (5) exhibited more selective anticancer activity than cisplatin against HepG2 cell line. Conclusion: Due to their high selectivity index, these compounds are considered as candidate compounds to participate in further research.

Aims and Objective: A series of novel phthalazine derivatives was synthesized with versatile, readily accessible electrophilic and nucleophilic reagents. The newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by the results of spectroscopic measurements. Hence, their potential clinical application investigated in particular for cancer treatment. Materials and Methods: The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectroscopic measurements and were tested for their in vitro anticancer activity by MTT assay against human liver cancer cell line. Docking study of all the synthesized compounds was performed within the active site of the enzyme VEGFR-2 (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-2). Results: The quinazoline derivative 12 emerged as the most potent compound in this study with an IC50 value of 5.4 µM. Docking study showed that the synthesized compounds were fit in the VEGFR-2 active site almost at the same position of sorafenib and vatalanib with comparable docking scores (-15.20 to -8.92 was kcal/mol). Conclusion: we have synthesized a novel series of phthalazine derivatives and evaluated their potential anticancer activity against HEPG2 cell line. The quinazoline derivative 12 emerged as the most potent compound in this study with an IC50 value of 5.4 µM. The SAR and docking studies pointed out that rigidification of the structure resulted in better activity and better binding within the active site of VEGFR-2 as in compounds 3, 5, 6 and 12. These results introduced new phthalazine derivatives having promising activity which could lead to the development of more potent anticancer agents.

Abstract3-Hydroxyflavones belong to the naturally occurring class of flavonoids and have been extensively studied with regard to medicinal application. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that these compounds act as bioactive chelates to the ruthenium(II)–arene moiety. Such organometallic complexes have shown promising anticancer activity against tumor cells via a multitargeting mode of action, interacting with DNA and inhibiting topoisomerase IIα. In this paper, we present the synthesis and characterization of an extended series of 3-hydroxyflavone ligands and their corresponding ruthenium-p-cymene complexes to study the impact of substitution pattern as well as of electron-withdrawing and –donating substituents at the flavonol-phenyl group. The ligands and complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, ESI-MS, 1D as well as 2D NMR spectroscopy. The structures of four Ru(η6-p-cymene) complexes were determined in solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and the impact of the substitution pattern with regard to in vitro anticancer activity in human cancer cell lines is discussed. Structural differences, calculated octanol-water partition coefficients (clogP) of the flavonols and aqueous solubility were used to rationalize the finding that chlorido[3-(oxo-κO)-2-(3,5- dimethoxyphenyl)-chromen-4-onato-κO](η6-p-cymene)ruthenium(II) 2b exhibits the highest cytotoxicity with IC50 values in the low μM range in all tested cell lines.
