Abstract

A novel class of aromatic diacylhydrazine derivatives was designed as PLK1 inhibitors. All the 19 new synthesized compounds were assayed for antitumor activity against the respective cervical cancer cells. In which, nine compounds with better antitumor activities were further tested for their PLK1 inhibitory activity. Last, we have successfully found that compound 7k showed both the promising antitumor activity with IC50 of 0.17 μM against the cervical cancer cells, and also processed the most potent PLK1 inhibitory activity with IC50 of 0.03 μM. In addition, docking simulation also carried out in this study to give a potent prediction binding mode between the small molecule and PKL1 (PDB code: 1umw) protein.
