摘要:
In continuation with our previous work, structurally diverse 2-indolinones bearing 2,6-dichloroaryl fragment at N (1) and (hetero)aryl benzylidene at C-3 were evaluated for their antitumor activity on a panel of cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 (breast), MiapaCa2 (pancreas), KB (oral), HuTu80 (stomach), L132 (lung), B16F10 (melanoma), and Molt4 (leukemia) from various human organs. Among the screened compound library, molecules 4e, 4k, and 4r have shown excellent cytotoxicity on a stomach cancer cell line. Moreover, a significant number of compounds have also shown promising cytotoxicity on pancreas and oral cancer cell lines.
