A series of 3-chloro-4-(indol-3-yl)-2,5-pyrroledione derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic
activities in vitro against five human cancer cell lines (K562, A549, ECA-109, KB and SMMC-7721). Most compounds
displayed potent cytotoxicity with IC50 values in low micromolar range. The results showed that the existence of
the chlorine atom at 3-position on the pyrroledione ring was crucial for the activity. Compound 6a, the most potent one
(IC50: 0.67∼3.93 μM), would be a promising template for further development of novel antitumor agents
合成了一系列3-氯-4-(吲哚-3-基)-2,5-吡咯二酮衍生物,并评估其对五种人癌细胞系(K562、A549、ECA-109、KB和SMMC-7721)的体外细胞毒性活性。大多数化合物表现出强效的细胞毒性,IC50值在低微摩尔范围内。结果表明,吡咯二酮环上3位的氯原子的存在对活性至关重要。化合物6a是最有效的(IC50:0.67∼3.93 μM),将成为进一步开发新型抗肿瘤药物的有前景的模板。
