Abstract
Background: 4-Methylacetophenone isused in the preparation of starting materials, 4-methylphenacyle bromide (2) and 4-methylacetophenone thiosemicarbazole (3). Results: Several novel 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-thiazole analogues were obtained via the treatment of starting materials with 4-methylphenacyl bromide, acetyl chloride, aromatic aldehydes and bromination providing thiazole derivatives 5-8 respectively. Conclusion: Compounds 5-8 wereinvestigated for their cytotoxic activity on MCF-7 and normal breast cells. Active compounds were found andin contrast to staurosporine, compound 8 displayed the most potent cytotoxic action that showed a strong inhibitory effect (aromatase) and (protein tyrosine kinase) enzymes, proving that the novel thiazole derivatives promoted the effective anticancer drug candidates.
