Resumo
Six new ferrocenyl guanidines were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and 1H and 13C NMR. Compounds 1–6 were screened for antioxidant, protein kinase inhibition, lethality of brine shrimp, and cytotoxicity against the human leukemia THP-1 cell line. The compounds demonstrated moderate to significant activities. Antioxidant activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated by DPPH % inhibition with IC50 values. All compounds 1–6 showed notable antioxidant activity with DPPH having IC50 values between 23.2–15.1 and noteworthy brine shrimp lethality. Compound 6 demonstrated the highest cytotoxicity against brine shrimps with LC50 of 9.09 μg/mL. Protein kinase inhibition activity showed significant hyphea formation inhibition at 100 μg/disc with 10 to 13 mm clear zone of inhibition for the compounds 2–6. The compounds were screened for in vitro cytotoxicity using human leukemia cell line (THP-1 ATCC#TIB-202). Among all compounds, the most significant activity was demonstrated by compounds 6 and 5 with IC50 of 3.88 and 5.59 μg/mL which was comparable with the standard 5-flourouracil and vincristine drugs.
