| Abstract: | Synthesis of twenty new curcumin inspired 2-chloro/phenoxy quinoline derivatives is outlined in this study. The obtained new chemical entities were screened in vitro for their cytotoxic activity towards various tumor cell lines. Of the compounds screened, 6c and 9d exhibited significant activity and the most active analogue 6c displayed promising cytotoxicity against PC-3 (IC50 of 3.12?±?0.11?μM), DU-145, NCI-H460 and 4?T1 cell lines. Further, 6c and 9d have 2.1 and 1.4 times more aqueous solubility, respectively, than curcumin. Additionally, the promising candidate 6c could induce G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in PC-3 cells, as determined by AO-EB staining, DAPI staining, analysis of ROS levels as well as annexin binding assay. |
