Abstract

Genistein is a phytoestrogen compound which possesses multiple biological activities such as anti-cancer, while its application is limited by poor pharmacokinetic properties. Structural modification is an effective approach to get genistein derivatives with better activities and approved pharmacokinetic properties. Based on previous research work, we synthesized two series of genistein derivatives bearing halogen substituents, and evaluated their inhibitory effects on the cancer cell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and MDA-MB-435. Among these derivatives, compound XI displayed the best inhibitory activity against MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 cell lines in vitro, which is worth further studies.
