Discovery andw biological evaluation of novel 6,7-disubstituted-4-(2-fluorophenoxy)quinoline derivatives possessing 1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide moiety as c-Met kinase inhibitors.

A series of 6,7-disubstituted-4-(2-fluorophenoxy)quinoline derivatives possessing 1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro biological activities against c-Met kinase and five typical cancer cell lines (A549, H460, HT-29, MKN-45 and U87MG). Most compounds showed moderate to excellent antiproliferative activity. In this study, a promising compound 34, with a c-Met IC50 value of 1.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 4-(2-fluorophenoxy)-2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)pyridines bearing semicarbazone moieties as potent antitumor agents.

A series of 4-(2-fluorophenoxy)-2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)pyridines bearing semicarbazone moieties were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antitumor potency. Some of the compounds (10b, 10c, 10e-10h, 10m-10p, 10r, and 11b) exhibited moderate to excellent antitumor activity as compared to sorafenib and PAC-1, as well as low levels of toxicity toward the human fetal lung fibroblast cell line WI-38. The most promising compound 10p (IC50 = 0.
