- 3-Aryl/Heteroaryl-5-amino-1-(3′,4′,5′-trimethoxybenzoyl)-1,2,4-triazoles as antimicrotubule agents. Design, synthesis, antiproliferative activity and inhibition of tubulin polymerization
-
Many natural and synthetic substances are known to interfere with the dynamic assembly of tubulin, preventing the formation of microtubules. In our search for potent and selective antitumor agents, a novel series of 1-(3′,4′,5′-trimethoxybenzoyl)-5-amino-1,2,4-triazoles were synthesized. The compounds had different heterocycles, including thiophene, furan or the three isomeric pyridines, and they possessed a phenyl ring bearing electron-releasing or electron-withdrawing substituents at the 3-position of the 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole system. Most of the twenty-two tested compounds showed moderate to potent antiproliferative activities against a panel of solid tumor and leukemic cell lines, with four (5j, 5k, 5o and 5p) showing strong antiproliferative activity (IC50 50 values 2-100-fold lower for Jurkat and RS4;11 cells than those for the three lines derived from solid tumors (HeLa, HT-29 and MCF-7 cells). Compound 5k strongly inhibited tubulin assembly, with an IC50 value of 0.66 μM, half that obtained in simultaneous experiments with CA-4 (IC50 = 1.3 μM).
