Abstract

Background: The synthesis of 2-[3/4-((6-substituted-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2- ylidene)methyl)phenoxy]-N-(heteroaryl)acetamide derivatives and the investigation of their anticancer activity were studied. Methods: 2-(3/4-Hydroxybenzylidene)-6-substituted-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ones were reacted with suitable 2-chloroacetamides to give 2-[3/4-((6-substituted-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-ylidene) methyl)phenoxy]-N-(heteroaryl)acetamide derivatives. Results: The structure elucidation of the newly synthesised 16 compounds was performed by IR, 1H-NMR, mass spectroscopic data and elemental analyses. The anticancer screening was carried out in National Cancer Institute (NCI), USA. Conclusion: Compound 3e (2-(3-((6-chloro-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-ylidene)methyl)phenoxy)- N-(thiazol-2-yl)acetamide), exhibited highest growth inhibition against the leukaemia (61.47%), non-small cell lung cancer (79.31%) and breast cancer (62.82%) cell lines.
