Background:
We report the design, synthesis and evaluation of a series of 4-biaryl
substituted 2-amino benzo[h]chromene derivatives as potential cytotoxic agents.
Methods:
The one-pot synthesis of this class of compounds was carried out under
ultrasound irradiation using an MCR involving Pd/C-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling as a
key step.
Result and Conclusion:
Several of these compounds showed promising cytotoxicities when tested
against cancer cell lines but no or little effects on non-cancerous cell lines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
