Abstract

The docking studies on CDK2 and GSK-3β inspired us to synthesis a series of indoline-2,3-dione hydrazones 10a-l. Treatment of indoline-2,3-dione derivatives 7a-d with hydrazine gave 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-ones 8a-d which were reacted with the appropriate aldehydes 9a-c to yield 3-substituted-(methylenehydrazono)indolin-2-ones 10a-l. Compounds 10a-l showed a significant Anticancer activity against human breast cell line MCF-7. Compounds 10c, f, i exhibited the highest activity almost the same of doxorubicin (IC50 = 6.10 μM) with IC50 = 7.75, 6.75, 6.25 μM, respectively.
