Synthesis and Anti-proliferative Activity of 4H-Chromone Based Phenylhydrazones, Pyrazolecarboxylates and
Abstract:
Series of 4H-chromone-based hydrazones 3a-z, pyrazolecarboxylates 5a-x and pyrazolylmethanones 6a-u were prepared and screened for their anti-proliferative activity on A549, HeLa, DU145 and MDAMB 231 cell lines. The hydrazone compound 3s with a chloro substituent on the chromanone moiety and a methoxy group on the phenyl ring displayed promising activity on A549, HeLa and DU145 cell lines. The compound 5p with a bromo substituent on the chromanone moiety and a methyl group on the phenyl ring displayed potent activity on DU145. Furopyrazolecarboxylate 5w having a methyl substituent on the phenyl ring displayed potent activity on HeLa cell line. The pyrazolylmethanone 6e with a fluoro substituent on the phenyl ring and compound 6j having a methyl substituent on the chromanone moiety and a methoxy group on the phenyl ring have shown promising anti-proliferative activity on HeLa cell line.

Dehydration Synthesis
Dehydration synthesis (also called a condensation reaction) is the chemical process in which two molecules covalently link together to form a new molecule, along with the release of a water molecule. Many physiologically important compounds form by dehydration synthesis reactions, such as complex carbohydrates, proteins, DNA, and RNA.
