The synthesis of a series of substituted hippuric acid (2-benzamidoacetic acid) derivatives containing arylsulfonylpiperazine nucleus (3a–j, 4a–j) is described. The compounds were synthesized by coupling hippuric/4-fluorohippuric acid with various arylsulfonylpiperazines using N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide (EDCI). The structures of all the new compounds were confirmed by IR, NMR and MS spectral data. All the synthesized compounds have been evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity towards five human cancer cell lines of different origins viz. HeLa (Cervical), A549 (Lung), A375 (Skin), MD-AMB-231(Breast) and T98G (brain) and their IC50 values were determined. Among the compounds tested, 3b, 3d, 3g, 4c and 4e displayed significant cytotoxic activity (IC50 = 24.2–38.2 µM). T98G was the most sensitive cell line towards the compounds studied followed by HeLa, A375, A549 and MD-AMB-231.

AbstractSix new neo-clerodane diterpenoids (1–6), scutebatas X – Z, A1-C1, along with twelve known ones (7–18) were obtained via the phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Scutellaria barbata. Their structures were established by detailed spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2, as the representative members of this type, were identified based on a circular dichroic exciton chirality method. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxicity of compounds 1–6 were evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, MCF-7, and A-549) using the MTT method. Compound 6 showed cytotoxic activities against all the three cell lines with IC50 values of 17.9, 29.9, and 35.7 µM, respectively.

A series of novel structurally simple analogues based on nitidine was designed and synthesized in search of potent anticancer agents. The antitumor activity against human cancer cell lines (HepG2, A549, NCI-H460, and CNE1) was performed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay in vitro. The results showed that some of them had good anticancer activities, especially derivatives with a [(dimethylamino)ethyl]amino side chain in the C-6 position. Planar conjugated compounds 15a, 15b, and 15c, with IC50 values of 1.20 μM, 1.87 μM, and 1.19 μM against CNE1 cells, respectively, were more active than nitidine chloride. Compound 15b and compound 15c with IC50 values of 1.19 μM and 1.37 μM against HepG2 cells and A549 cells demonstrated superior activities to nitidine. Besides, compound 5e which had a phenanthridinone core displayed extraordinary cytotoxicity against all test cells, particularly against CNE1 cells with the IC50 value of 1.13 μM.

A series of 30-diethylphosphate derivatives of betulin were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines, such as amelanotic melanoma (C-32), glioblastoma (SNB-19), and two lines of breast cancer (T47D, MDA-MB-231). The molecular structure and activities of the new compounds were also compared with their 29-phosphonate analogs. Compounds 7a and 7b showed the highest activity against C-32 and SNB-19 cell lines. The IC50 values for 7a were 2.15 and 0.91 μM, and, for 7b, they were 0.76 and 0.8 μM for the C-32 and SNB-19 lines, respectively. The most potent compounds, 7a and 7b, were tested for their effects on markers of apoptosis, such as H3, TP53, BAX, and BCL-2. For the whole series of phosphate derivatives, a lipophilicity study was performed, and the ADME parameters were calculated. The most active products were docked to the active site of the EGFR protein. The relative binding affinity of selected phosphate betulin derivatives toward EGFR was compared with standard erlotinib on the basis of ChemScore and KDEEP score. Positively, all derivatives docked inside the cavity and showed significant interactions. Moreover, a molecular dynamics study also reveals that ligands 7a,b form stable complexes and the plateau phase started after 7 ns.

A linear strategy was adopted in synthesizing the novel amine derivatives 7(a-h) of 5-[5- (chloromethyl)-1, 3, 4-oxadiazol-2-yl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-pyridine (6) and screened these compounds for in vitro anticancer activity against three human cancer cell lines (HeLa,Caco-2 and HepG2). The synthesised novel compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, MS and 13C NMR spectroscopic evidences. Microwave irradiation of compound (5) in presence of chloroacetyl chloride and phosphoryl oxychloride yielded the dehydrated cyclized key intermediate 5-[5-(chloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-pyridine which upon treatment with various primary or secondary amines (a-h) resulted into the corresponding amine derivatives. The IC50 values of the final compounds were compared with that of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) taken as the standard. Compounds 7a and 7d were found to be highly cytotoxic against HepG2 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.6 ?M (IC50 = 34.0 ± 0.5 ?M) and 5.8 ?M (IC50 = 112 ± 1.4 ?M) respectively. The compound (7f) alone was found to have high cytotoxicity against Caco-2 cell lines with IC50 value of 2.3 ?M (IC50 = 87 ± 2.6 ?M).Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 16(1): 11-19, 2017 (June)

A series of 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 4a–m, were designed, synthesized and tested in vitro as potential pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 inhibitory anticancer agents based on our previously reported hit compounds. Synthesis of the target 1,3,4-oxadiazoles was readily accomplished through a cyclization reaction of indole carboxylic acid hydrazide 2 with substituted carboxylic acid derivatives 3a–m in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride. New compounds 4a–m showed a range of IC50 values concentrated in the low micromolar range selectively in Bcl-2 positive human cancer cell lines. The most potent candidate 4-trifluoromethyl substituted analogue 4j showed selective IC50 values of 0.52–0.88 μM against Bcl-2 expressing cell lines with no inhibitory effects in the Bcl-2 negative cell line. Moreover, 4j showed binding that was two-fold more potent than the positive control gossypol in the Bcl-2 ELISA binding affinity assay. Molecular modeling studies helped to further rationalize anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 binding and identified compound 4j as a candidate with drug-like properties for further investigation as a selective Bcl-2 inhibitory anticancer agent.

Purpose: To synthesize and screen some new nitrone compounds derived from terephthaldehyde for their anticancer potential. Methods: Six new compounds (H, p-Me,p-Br, p-Cl, o-Cl and m-Me) were synthesized via a condensation reaction between terephthaldehyde and a variety of aryl hydroxylamine compounds derived from nitrobenzene and its derivatives. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified using elemental CHN analysis and were elucidated using Fourier Transform infra-red (FT-IR), 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), and elemental analysis. The anticancer effects of the compounds were screened in vitro with respect to their cytotoxicity on MCF7 human cancer cells line. The IC50 values were obtained by MTT assay and their effects on apoptosis of MCF-7 cells were assessed using Acridine orange-ethidium bromide AO/EtBr staining method under a fluorescence microscope. Results: Only four compounds (2b, 2d, 2e, and 2f) inhibited more than 50 % of the growth of MCF-7 cells. The strongest anti-proliferation effect against MCF-7 cells was exhibited by 2f (m-Me), producing more apoptosis which increased membrane disruption and consistency of lysosome vacuoles; it also exhibited higher cytotoxic effects on human cancer cell lines (IC50 < 7.5) than the other synthesized compounds. Conclusion: The new nitrone compounds (2b, 2d, 2e, and 2f) synthesized from terephthaldehyde exhibit some anticancer properties, and so are potential anticancer agents.

Insight Into

Abstract In the current paper, we describe the design, synthesis and antiproliferative screening of novel chloroquine derivatives with a quinoline core linked to a hydroxy or halogen amine through a flexible aminobutyl chain and urea spacer. Synthetic pathway leading to chloroquine urea derivatives 4-10 includes two crucial steps: i) synthesis of chloroquine benzotriazolide 3 and ii) formation of urea derivatives through the reaction of compound 3 with the corresponding amine. Testing of antiproliferative activity against four human cancer cell lines revealed that chloroquine urea derivatives 9 and 10 with aromatic moieties show activity at micromolar concentrations. Therefore, these molecules represent interesting lead compounds that might provide an insight into the design of new anticancer agents.
