Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of 4-Phenoxyquinoline Derivatives Containing Benzo[d]thiazole-2-yl Urea as c-Met Kinase Inhibitors

摘要

A series of novel 4-phenoxyquinoline derivatives containing the benzo[d]thiazole-2-yl urea moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxicity against the HT-29, MKN-45, and H460 cell lines. The structures of the target compounds were confirmed by H-1 NMR and MS spectra. Most of them showed moderate to excellent potency against the three tested cell lines. Especially, compound 23 was identified a promising agent (c-Met IC50 = 17.6 nM), showing the most potent anticancer activities with IC50 values of 0.18, 0.06, and 0.01 mu M against the HT-29, MKN-45, and H460 cell lines, respectively. The docking results of 23 with the c-Met kinase model 3LQ8 showed a specific binding mode between the ligand and the target protein.
