Abstract
- A series of new 1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazole derivatives of dehydroabietic acid were designed and synthesized as potent antitumor agents. Structures of the target molecules were characterized using MS, IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and elemental analyses. In the in vitro cytotoxic assay, most compounds showed significant cytotoxic activities against two hepatocarcinoma cells (SMMC-7721 and HepG2) and reduced cytotoxicity against noncancerous human hepatocyte (LO2). Among them, compound 7b exhibited the best cytotoxicity against SMMC-7721 cells (IC 50 : 0.36 ± 0.13 μM), while 7e was most potent to HepG2 cells (IC 50 : 0.12 ± 0.03 μM). The cell cycle analysis indicated that compound 7b caused cell cycle arrest of SMMC-7721 cells at G2/M phase. Further, compound 7b also induced the apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells in Annexin V-APC/7-AAD binding assay. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
