Ten p-nitrodiarylthiourea analogs were designed, synthesized and evaluated in breast (MCF-7, T-47D, MDA-MB-453) and prostate (DU-145, PC-3, LNCaP) cancer cell lines for their anticancer activities. The majority of the compounds were able to inhibit the growth of these six cancer cell lines at low micromolar concentrations. Compound 7 was found to be the most potent anticancer agent in this series with GI(50) values of 3.16 mu M for MCF-7, 2.53 mu M for T-47D, 4.77 mu M for MDA-MB-453 breast cancer lines and 3.54 mu M for LNCaP prostate cancer cell line. These GI(50) values were comparable to the parent compound, SHetA2. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
