Synthesis of 1-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-3-methylene-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one derivatives and in vitro anticancer evaluation against SW620 colon cancer cell line.

摘要

A small library of 2-indolinone derivatives with the 2,6-dichlorophenyl ring at the N(1) position and with varying substitutions including aryl groups at the 3-position were synthesized, and their structures were confirmed by spectral analysis. All molecules were screened for their in vitro cytotoxic activity on SW620 colon cancer cell lines. Among the designed series compounds 4c, 4f and 4j were found to be active at concentrations of 2-15 microg/ml. Some 3D-QSAR models were also built to understand the structure-activity relationship.
