Abstract

Series of new benzoxepinoisoxazolones 4a-d and pyrazolones 6a-t were prepared by the cyclocondensation of substituted (E)-ethyl 3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]oxepine-4-carboxylates 3a-d with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and phenylhydrazine hydrochlorides 5a-k. Synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro anti-mycobacterial activity and Anticancer activity. Ten compounds displayed good anti-mycobacterial activity, among these; compound 4d and 6b found to be potent when compared to standard drug isoniazid. Eleven compounds displayed good Anticancer activity and compounds 4b-d displayed equipotent activity on HeLa cell lines when compared to standard drug doxorubicin. Activation of Caspase-3 and caspase-9 has been measured for compounds 4b-d on HeLa cell lines (Apoptosis). This is the first report assigning in vitro anti-mycobacterial, Anticancer and structure-activity relationship for this new class of benzoxepinoisoxazolones and pyrazolones.
