Abstract
In this study, a new series of anthracene-9-sulfonyl derivatives incorporated with different heterocyclic moieties were synthesized and screened for their in vitro anticancer activity against colon carcinoma cell lines (HCT-116), hepatic carcinoma cell lines (HepG 2) and breast carcinoma cell lines (MCF-7). Among them, compound 4-acetylphenyl anthracene-9-sulfonate (8) showed selective high cytotoxic activity over colon carcinoma cell lines (HCT-116), also compounds 2-(anthracen-9-ylsulfonyl)malononitrile (7), N-(4-fluorophenyl)anthracene-9-sulfonamide (5b) and N-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methyl)anthracene-9-sulfonamide (10) showed the significant selective cytotoxic effect over breast carcinoma cell lines (MCF-7). All the compounds are subjected to explore their safety on normal human skin cell lines (BJ-1), the results revealed that all the compounds are safe and have insignificant weak cytotoxicity over normal human cells.
