Novel (Z)-N'-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)-2-(4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)acetohydrazides and an anticancer composition comprising the same as an active ingredient

(Z)- N' - (2-oxoindolin -3 - ylidene) -2 - (4-oxoquinazolin -3 (4H) - yl) acetohydrazide and an anticancer composition containing the same as an active ingredient. , It will be described below. (Z)- N' - (2-oxoindoline -3 - ylidene) -2 - (4-oxazoline -3 (4H) - yl) acetohydrazide according to the present invention activates procacaspase -3 to promote the conversion to caspase -3, so that it can be used as a proliferation inhibitor for various cancer cells. The compound according to the present invention can be developed as an active ingredient of a potent anticancer agent.

New Acetohydrazides Incorporating 2-Oxoindoline and 4-Oxoquinazoline: Synthesis and Evaluation of Cytotoxicity and Caspase Activation Activity

In our search for new small molecules activating procaspase-3, we have designed and synthesized a series of new acetohydrazides incorporating both 2-oxoindoline and 4-oxoquinazoline scaffolds. Biological evaluation showed that a number of these acetohydrazides were comparably or even more cytotoxic against three human cancer cell lines (SW620, colon cancer; PC-3, prostate cancer; NCI?H23, lung cancer) in comparison to PAC-1, a first procaspase-3 activating compound, which was used as a positive control. One of those new compounds, 2-(6-chloro-4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-N′-[(3Z)-5-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]acetohydrazide activated the caspase-3 activity in U937 human lymphoma cells by 5-fold higher than the untreated control. Three of the new compounds significantly induced necrosis and apoptosis in U937 cells.

(E)-N'-Arylidene-2-(4-oxoquinazolin-4(3H)-yl) acetohydrazides: Synthesis and evaluation of antitumor cytotoxicity and caspase activation activity

In our search for novel small molecules activating procaspase-3, we have designed and synthesised a series of novel acetohydrazides incorporating quinazolin-4(3H)-ones (5, 6, 7). Biological evaluation revealed eight compounds with significant cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines (SW620, colon cancer; PC-3, prostate cancer; NCI-H23, lung cancer). The most potent compound 5t displayed cytotoxicity up to 5-fold more potent than 5-FU. Analysis of structure-activity relationships showed that the introduction of different substituents at C-6 position on the quinazolin-4(3H)-4-one moiety, such as 6-chloro or 6-methoxy potentially increased the cytotoxicity of the compounds. In term of caspase activation activity, several compounds were found to exhibit potent effects, (e.g. compounds 7 b, 5n, and 5l). Especially, compound 7 b activated caspases activity by almost 200% in comparison to that of PAC-1. Further docking simulation also revealed that this compound potentially is a potent allosteric inhibitor of procaspase-3.
