A new series of N-aryl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-pyridazine-3-carboxylic acids has been synthesized by condensation of aryldiazonium with 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone. Some of these compounds exhibited in-vitro cytotoxic activity with moderate to excellent growth inhibition against the murine P815 mastocytoma cell line. Compound 5b showed an important cytotoxic activity against cell line P815 (IC(50 )= 0.40 microg/mL).
The reaction of 3-allylrhodanine with 2-arylidene-4-methyl-5-oxopyrazolidinium ylides proceeded unexpectedly to the formation of novel 3-allyl-5-(arylidene)-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-ones 6a-k in good yields. All structures have been formulated on the basis of their spectral (IR, NMR, MS) data and elemental analyses. In addition, the structure of compound 6a was confirmed by means of X-ray crystallographic analysis.
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.
