A series of aryl benzyl ethers with fluorosubstituents were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by spectral. All the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activity in vitro against two human tumor cell lines: A549, SGC7901, and most showed cytotoxicity. Compound 10 was the most active in suppressing the growth of both screened cancer cells.

A series of tailored novobiocin-ferrocene conjugates was prepared in moderate yields and investigated for in vitro anticancer and antiplasmodial activity against the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer line and Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 strain, respectively. While the target compounds displayed moderate anticancer activity against the breast cancer cell line with IC50 values in the mid-micromolar range, compounds 10a-c displayed promising antiplasmodial activity as low as 0.889 mu M. Furthermore, the most promising compounds were tested for inhibitory effects against a postulated target, heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90).Graphical abstract A selection of tailored novobiocin derivatives bearing the organometallic ferrocene unit were synthesized and characterized by common spectroscopic techniques. The target compounds were investigated for in vitro anticancer and antimalarial activity against the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line and Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 strain, respectively.[GRAPHICS].
