Abstract

Six compounds were synthesized with piperazine in linker region and hydroxamate as Zinc Binding Group (ZBG). They were screened against three cancer cell-lines (NCIH460; HCT116; U251). Compounds 5c and 5f with GI50 value of 9.33 ± 1.3 μM and 12.03 ± 4 μM, respectively, were tested for their inhibitory potential on hHDAC8. Compound 5c had IC50 of 33.67 μM. Compounds were also screened for their anticancer activity against HL60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line due to the presence of pharmacophoric features of RR inhibitors in them. Compound 5c had IC50 of 0.6 μM at 48 h.

Graphical abstract

Compound 5c has shown mean GI50: 9.33 ± 1.3 μM against NCIH460, HCT116 and U251 cell lines and IC50: 33.67 μM against HDAC8. It also inhibited HL60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line due to the presence of pharmacophoric features of RR inhibitor.

    It turned out from this study that the best linker for connecting the carboxamido -β -carboline and amino triazine is the ethylene unit. Ashok et.al., [68] developed a synthetic route for the synthesis of piperazinyl β-carboline derivatives 28a-d by combining the ester group of β-carboline at C-3 position [69–71] and piperazine moiety [72–79]. Compounds 28a-d were evaluated for anti-leishmanial activity.
