GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT
Modified biotin derivatives are effective in killing cancer. Herein we describe the design and synthesis of conjugated biotin-pyrazole derivatives 3a-3h to evaluate as potential anticancer agents. A set of compounds has been prepared by palladium catalysed aminocarbonylation using carbon monoxide in an autoclave. They were well characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and screened for anticancer activity. A cell viability assay (MTT assay) was performed on U251, A549, and HepG2 cell lines and determined their IC50 value. Among target agents, 3a had a considerable activity against human brain cancer cell line U251 (IC50 3.5 µM). 3a could be a promising candidate for the development of new drugs to treat tumours, particularly for brain cancer.
