Synthesis and Anticancer Evaluation of Novel Derivatives of Isoxazolo[4,5-e][1,2,4]triazepine Derivatives and Potential Inhibitors of Protein Kinase C

In the present study, using Thorpe's reaction with Gew ald's modification, 4-acetylamino-5-acetyl or 5-benzoyl 3-carboxamide compounds 3 or 4 were obtained. From these compounds, two series of compounds (5, 7, and 9 and 6, 8, and 10) were obtained with 98% hydrazine. Compounds 6, 7, 8, and 9 were then reacted with the appropriate aldehydes to afford a series of new isoxazole derivatives (11-18, 27-36, and 37-41) and the main compounds, 19-26 and 42-45, were isoxazolo[4,5-e] [1,2,4]triazepine derivatives. The anticarcinogenic activities of selected compounds were tested on six lines of cancer cells, and their activities were compared with the relevant concentrations of the anticarcinogenic drugs cisplatin and doxorubicin in IITD PAN. Several compounds were tested on 60 lines of cancer cells by the NCI (Bethesda, MD, USA). The cyclization of compound 12 into derivative 46 was also carried out. Compound 21 showed extremely high antitumor activity.
