N-acylhydrazones containing thiophene nucleus: a new anticancer class

In this study, we present a series of N -acylhydrazones containing thiophene nuclei as a new anticancer class. Fifty-seven compounds in this series were evaluated for their activity against four human cancer cell lines. Cytotoxicity (IC 50 ) ranged from 0.82 to 12.90 μM. The compound ( E )- N ′-(2-h...

Zusammenfassung:In this study, we present a series of N -acylhydrazones containing thiophene nuclei as a new anticancer class. Fifty-seven compounds in this series were evaluated for their activity against four human cancer cell lines. Cytotoxicity (IC 50 ) ranged from 0.82 to 12.90 μM. The compound ( E )- N ′-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)thiophene-2-carbohydrazide displayed good cytotoxic activity in all cell lines (IC 50  = 0.82–5.36 μM) and yielded the best result in this series; therefore, it is an important lead compound in this new class.
