Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Pyridineamide Derivatives Containing a 1,2,3-Triazole Fragment as Type II c-Met Inhibitors.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A series of 4-(pyridin-4-yloxy)benzamide derivatives containing a 1,2,3-triazole fragment were designed, synthesized, and their inhibitory activity against A549, HeLa, and MCF-7 cancer cell lines was evaluated. Most compounds exhibited moderate to potent antitumor activity against the three cell lines. Among them, the promising compound B26 showed stronger inhibitory activity than Golvatinib, with IC50 values of 3.22, 4.33, and 5.82 ?M against A549, HeLa, and MCF-7 cell lines, respectively. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) demonstrated that the modification of the terminal benzene ring with a single electron-withdrawing substituent (fluorine atom) and the introduction of a pyridine amide chain with a strong hydrophilic group (morpholine) to the hinge region greatly improved the antitumor activity. Meanwhile, the optimal compound B26 showed potent biological activity in some pharmacological experiments in vitro, such as cell morphology study, dose-dependent test, kinase activity assay, and cell cycle experiment. Finally, the molecular docking simulation was performed to further explore the binding mode of compound B26 with c-Met.
