Abstract
A new library of Aryl Benzimidazole-Pyridones (9a–j) has been synthesized, their structures were determined by 1HNMR,13CNMR and mass spectral data. Further, these compounds explored for their anticancer application on four human cancer cell lines such as human prostate cancer cell line (PC3), lung cancer (A549), breast cancer (MCF-7) and human ovarian cancer (A2780) by employing MTT assay and results were compared with known anticancer agent asetoposide. All these compounds displayed remarkable cytotoxic activity. Among them, five compounds 9a, 9b, 9c, 9h and 9i displayed more potent activity. All compounds exhibited a discerning cytotoxic effect on cancer cells while not affecting normal Vero cells (IC50 = >22 µM), so providing justification for the strategic design approach employed in the development of a targeted anticancer drug.
