A series of potential bioactive compounds, 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (1d), 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (2d) , 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-(2, 4-dichlorophenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (3d), 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (4d), 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-(2-methylphenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (5d), 4-Amino-5-mercapto-, 2, 4-triazole (6d) were synthesized according to the 1 literature methods. The synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, H NMR spectroscopy, C H N analysis and anticancer activity was evaluated.Male Swiss albino mice has been used as test animal. Tumor cells used for anticancer activity were EAC (Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma). Compounds were given at a dose of 25 mg/kg body weight intraperitoneally. groups were found to reduce tumor volume, viable cell count and increase the tumor weight (%) inhibition, ascites cells (%) inhibition and non-viable cell count and increase in life span (%ILS). All the compounds exhibited the significant (P< 0.01) anticancer activity compared to control and the compound 4d is found to be the most potent one. The standard drug was used as 5-Fluorouracil (20mg/kg, body weight).Keywords: 1, 2, 4-triazole, anticancer activity, tumor cell count, tumor weight inhibition.
