A series of 4-(1H-indol-3-yl-methylene)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one derivatives have been synthesised. The Z structure of 4-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene]- 3-phenyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-5-one was determined by X-ray crystallography. The antitumour activity was evaluated against five cancer cells by MTT assay. [(1H-Indol-3-yl)methylene]-1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)- 3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-one and 4-{4-[(1-benzyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene]-3-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1Hpyrazol- 1-yl}-benzoic acid have similar anticancer activity with 5-UF on the test cancer cells (exception of A375). Almost all the target compounds displayed antitumour activity against A549 and PC-9, and those with benzyl at 1- position of indole had higher activity against PC-9 (IC50 value lower than 30 μM). Those with benzyl at the indole and carboxyl at the phenyl part of of pyrazole were more active against PC-9 and A549 cells, providing a good indication for subsequent optimisation as lung cancer inhibitory agents.
