Novel 5-N,N-disubstituted-5-amino-3-(2-oxopropyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles: synthesis and study of neuroprotective and antiproliferative properties

详细

A series of eight novel 5-N,N-disubstituted-5-amino-3-(2-oxopropyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles with diverse lipophilic groups was obtained by reaction of 3-isothiocyanato-5-methylisoxazole with secondary amines. All the compounds of the series (independently on the type of the substituents) were found to be ineffective as inhibitors of calcium ions uptake in synaptosomes of rat cerebral cortex. Screening of the cytotoxicity to four cell lines (breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7, conditionnally normal breast epithelial cells MCF-10A, lung carcinoma A549, non-cancer lung fibroblasts VA13) revealed three compounds with good selectivity to cancer cells MCF-7 in comparison with non-cancer cell line MCF- 10A. These 1,2,4-thiadiazoles can serve as new leads for further study of their antitumor properties.
