RESUMO
BACKGROUND: 9-anilinoacridines are acting as DNA-intercalating agents which plays an important role as antitumor drugs, due to their anti-proliferative properties. Some anticancer agents contain 9- anilinoacridines such as amsacrine (m-AMSA), and nitracrine (Ledakrine) have been already developed. METHODS: In this study, novel 9-anilinoacridines substituted with thiazines 4a-r were designed, synthesized, characterized by physical and spectral data and their cytotoxic activities against DLA cell lines were evaluated. RESULTS: Among those compounds, 4b, c, e, g, i, j, k, m, o, p, q, r exhibited significant short term in vitro cytotoxic activity against Daltons lymphoma ascites (DLA) cells with CTC50 value of 0.18 to 0.31µM. The compounds 4b, c, e, g, i, j, k, m, o, p, q, r are also exhibited significant long term in vitro anti-tumour activity against human tumor cell lines, HEp-2 (laryngeal epithelial carcinoma) by Sulforhodamine B assay with CTC50 value of 0.20 to 0.39µM. The compounds 4b, i, j exhibited significant in vivo antitumor activity with % Increase in Life Span (ILS) 48-82%. CONCLUSION: Results obtained in this study clearly demonstrated that many of the thiazine substituted 9- anilinoacridines exert interesting anti-tumour activity. The compounds 4b, i, j have significant anti-tumour activity and useful drugs after further refinement. The above derivatives will encourage to design future antitumor agents with high therapeutic potentials.

A series of 9-anilinoacridines substituted with oxazine derivatives were synthesized to evaluate their antioxidant and anticancer activity against Daltons Lymphoma Ascites (DLA) cell growth by in vitro method. It was revealed that these conjugates exhibited significant antioxidant and anticancer activity (inhibition of DLA cell proliferation). Among these agents, compounds 5a, 5h, 5i, 5j were the most cytotoxic with CTC(50) value of 140-250 µg/mL. The docking studies of the synthesized compounds were performed towards the key Topoisomerase II (1QZR) by using Schrodinger Maestro 9.2 version. The oxazine substituted 9-anilinoacridine derivatives 5a, 5h, 5i, 5j have significant anticancer activity as topoisomerase II inhibitors.

A convenient synthesis of novel isoxazole-substituted 9-anilinoacridine derivatives 5a-j was reported. The compounds were confirmed by physical and analytical data and screened for in vitro antioxidant activity by DPPH method, reducing power assay and total antioxidant capacity method. The cytotoxic activity of the compounds was also studied in HEp-2 cell line. The docking studies of the synthesized compounds were performed towards the key nucleoside dsDNA by using AutoDock vina 4.0 programme. All the isoxazole-substituted compounds have significant activities.
