Synthesis and Reactions of Some New Heterocyclic Carbohydrazides and Related Compounds as Potential Anticancer Agents

Abstract

Acylation of 3-hydrazino-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (2) and hydrazine hydrate (7) with 4-aryl-1,3,7-triphenyl-8-oxa-1,2,6-triazaspiro[4.4]nona-2,6-dien-9-ones 5a,b gave the corresponding heterocyclic carbohydrazides 6a,b and 8a,b respectively. Conversion of compounds 8a,b into the versatile carbohydrazide derivatives 9a-g, 10, 13 and the related oxadiazoles 11, 12a,b was undertaken. A primary in vitro test of compound 8a (concentration 10-4 M) showed activity against leukemia cell lines (CCRFCEM, K-256, MOLT-4, PRMI-8226, SR).
