Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of combretastatin-A4 analogs of pyrazoline and pyridine derivatives as anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents
Three category of N 1 -phenyl pyrazoline ( 5a – e ), N 1 -phenyl-sulfonyl pyrazoline ( 6a – e), and pyridine analogs ( 8a – d ) of combretastatin-A4 were synthesized. The structures of compounds were verified by spectroscopic techniques. All the compounds were screened for their anticancer activity...

Summary: | Three category of
N
1
-phenyl pyrazoline (
5a
–
e
),
N
1
-phenyl-sulfonyl pyrazoline (
6a
–
e),
and pyridine analogs (
8a
–
d
) of combretastatin-A4 were synthesized. The structures of compounds were verified by spectroscopic techniques. All the compounds were screened for their anticancer activity against MCF-7 cell line, antioxidant (DPPH, NO, SOR and H
2
O
2
), and anti-inflammatory activity while compounds (
8a
–
d
) additionally tested against K562 cell line. Compounds
8a
and
8b
showed substantial anticancer activity against MCF-7 cell line (GI
50
= 5.59 and 11.70 µM), although not comparable with adriamycin (GI
50
⩽ 0.1 µM). However, none of the compound was active against the K562 cell line. Nevertheless, compound
8a
displayed better cytostatic activity (TGI = 69.2 µM) than the standard drug adriamycin (TGI = 75.8 µM). Most of the compounds
5a, 5b, 5c, 5e, 6a, 6b, 6c
,
6d, 6e 8a,
and
8b
have excellently inhibited all of the free radicals better than standard drug ascorbic acid, whereas compound
5c
and
5b
demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory activity comparable with diclofenac sodium, a standard anti-inflammatory drug. |
