Abstract
A series of N-(substituted)-4-methyl aniline derivatives (4a,b, 5a,b, 6, 7, 8, and 9) has been designed and synthesized, and their biological activities were also evaluated as potential anti-tumor and tubulin enzyme inhibitors. Among all compounds, compound (8) showed the most potent tubulin aromatase enzyme inhibitory activity in vitro with an IC50 of 157.3 pg/mL compared to the reference inhibitor Dox (IC50 = 227.4 pg/mL). A docking simulation was performed to insert compound (8) into the crystal structure of human aromatase at the active site to determine the probable binding model. Based on the previous results, compound (8) with potent inhibitory activity on tumor growth could be employed as a potential anticancer agent.
期刊介绍:
Current Organic Chemistry aims to provide in-depth/mini reviews on the current progress in various fields related to organic chemistry including bioorganic chemistry, organo-metallic chemistry, asymmetric synthesis, heterocyclic chemistry, natural product chemistry, catalytic and green chemistry, suitable aspects of medicinal chemistry and polymer chemistry, as well as analytical methods in organic chemistry. The frontier reviews provide the current state of knowledge in these fields and are written by chosen experts who are internationally known for their eminent research contributions. The Journal also accepts high quality research papers focusing on hot topics, highlights and letters besides thematic issues in these fields. Current Organic Chemistry should prove to be of great interest to organic chemists in academia and industry, who wish to keep abreast with recent developments in key fields of organic chemistry.
