Synthesis of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives and their antiproliferative activity against melanoma cell line

Synthesis of a new series of diarylureas and amides having pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold is described. Their in vitro antiproliferative activities against A375 human melanoma cell line and HS 27 fibroblast cell line were tested and the effect of substituents on pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine was investigated. The newly synthesized compounds, except N-acetyl derivatives (Id, Ie, and Im), generally showed superior or similar activity against A375 to Sorafenib. Among all of these derivatives, compounds Iq and Ir having imidazole and morpholine moieties, respectively, showed the most potent antiproliferative activity against A375.

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine derivatives against melanoma

Synthesis of a new series of diarylureas and amides having pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine scaffold is described. Their in vitro antiproliferative activity against human melanoma cell line A375 and HS 27 human fibroblast cell line was tested and the effect of substituents on the pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine was investigated. The newly synthesized compounds, except meta-substituted derivatives (Ij-k and Iv-w), generally showed superior or similar activity against A375 to Sorafenib. Among all of these derivatives, compounds Ir and It having 5-benzylamide substituted 4-amide moieties showed the most potent antiproliferative activity against A375.

Aminoquinoline derivatives with antiproliferative activity against melanoma cell line

The synthesis of a novel series of aminoquinoline derivatives 1a-p and their antiproliferative activities against A375 human melanoma cell line were described. Most compounds showed superior antiproliferative activities to Sorafenib as a reference compound. Among them, quinolinyloxymethylphenyl compounds 1k and 1l exhibited potent activities (IC(50)=0.77 and 0.79microM, respectively) and excellent selectivity against melanoma and fibroblast cell lines.

Synthesis of aminoquinazoline derivatives and their antiproliferative activities against melanoma cell line.

The synthesis of a novel series of aminoquinazoline derivatives 1a-r and their antiproliferative activities against A375 human melanoma cell line were described. Among them, six compounds showed superior antiproliferative activities to Sorafenib as a reference compound. In particular, the representative compound 1q bearing chromen-4-one moiety exhibited excellent antiproliferative activity (IC(50)=0.006 μM) and good selectivity over HS27 fibroblast cell line.

Synthesis of 1H‐Pyrazole‐1‐carboxamide Derivatives and Their Antiproliferative Activity against Melanoma Cell Line

Synthesis of a new series of 1H‐pyrazole‐1‐carboxamide derivatives is described. Their antiproliferative activity against A375 human melanoma cell line was tested and the effect of substituents on the diarylpyrazole scaffold was investigated. The pharmacological results indicated that most of the newly synthesized compounds showed moderate activity against A375, compared with sorafenib. Among all of these derivatives, compound IIe which has N‐methylpiperazinyl and phenolic moieties showed the most potent antiproliferative activity against A375 human melanoma cell line.
