Abstract:
Following the reaction of benzothiazol-2-yl-hydrazine or (2-oxo-benzothiazol-3-
yl)-acetic acid hydrazide with thiocarbonyl-bis-thioglycolic acid, 3-(benzothiazol-2-
ylamino)-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one (1) and 2-(2-oxobenzothiazol-3-yl)-N-(4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)-acetamide(2) were synthesized, as starting compounds for
obtaining new5-arylidenederivatives (3-6) in Knoevenagel condensation with aromatic
aldehydes and isatines. The synthesized compounds showed antitumor activity on renal
cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer cell lines. The most efficient
anticancer agent, 2-{2-[3-(benzothiazol-2-ylamino)-4-oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-5-
ylidenemethyl]-4-chloro-phenoxy}-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-acetamide 3d was found to be
active with average values of -5.38 and -4.45 for logGI50 and logTGI, respectively.
