Abstract
A new series of urea and thiourea bearing thiophene-2-carboxalate derivatives has been designed against protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) active site, synthesized and charecterized by 1H and 13C NMR, and mass spectra. The compounds have been evaluated for in vitro anticancer activity against different cancer cell lines using the MTT colorimetric assay and doxorubicin as a standard drug. Among the tested compounds, methyl 3-methoxy-4-{4-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)thioureido]phenyl}thiophene-2-carboxylate demonstrates the highest inhibitory activity against MCF-7, K562, HepG2, MDA-MB-231, and HeLa cell lines. The new molecular structures and their interactions with PNP1B have been evaluated by docking studies.
