DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND ANTICANCER ACTIVITY OF SOME NOVEL 1,2,4-TRIAZOLES CARRYING BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE SULFONAMIDE...

Thirteen novel 1, 2, 4-triazoles incorporating a biologically active sulfonamide moieties 1-13 were designed and synthesized. The structures of the prepared compounds were elucidated on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, 'H-NMR, "C-NMR and mass spectral data. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vino anticancer activity against various cancer cell lines. The corresponding triazole carrying a biologically active free sulfonamide with unsubstituted phenyl ring 1 and triazole bearing sulfonamide with dimethylpyrimidine 11 were the most potent in this study which showed higher activity than the reference drug 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein (DCF). Cytotoxic screening of the tested compounds could offer an encouraging framework in the field that may lead to the discovery of potent anticancer activity.
