[ 1 ] - Synthesis and In Vitro Cytotoxic Activity of Novel Chalcone-Like Agents

  Objective(s): Chalcones and their rigid analogues represent an important class of small molecules having anticancer activities. Therefore, in this study the synthesis and cytotoxic activity of new 3-benzylidenchroman-4-ones were described as rigid chalcone analogues.   Materials and Methods: The reaction of resorcinol with 3-chloropropionic acid in the presence of CF3SO3H was a...

[ 2 ] - Novel N-2-(Furyl)-2-(chlorobenzyloxyimino) ethyl Piperazinyl Quinolones: Synthesis, Cytotoxic Evaluation and Structure-activity Relationship

Quinolone antibacterials are one of the most important classes of pharmacological agents known as potent inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV that efficiently inhibit DNA replication and transcription by generating several double-stranded DNA break. Some quinolone derivatives demonstrated inhibitory potential against eukaryote topoismarase II and substantial dose-dependent cy...
