SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL 2-PHENYL-1-BENZOFURAN-3(2H)-ONE DERIVATIVES AS NEW LEADS FOR ANTI-CANCER ACTIVITY

Abstract

Benzofuranone is a bicyclic ring where a benzene ring fused with a furanone. Synthetic chemistry plays a major in developing a series of potent anti-cancer agents. Bromophenyl acetonitrile was prepared from phenyl acetonitrile by bromination at an alpha position which yielded bromophenyl acetonitrile which was a lachrymator compound. Benzofuranone was synthesized by reacting benzene diols and triols with bromo phenyl acetonitrile yielded an imine derivative are converted to a ketone with treatment with hydrochloric acid then cyclized with sodium acetate. The compounds identity and purity are confirmed by spectral and analytical methods. Benzofuranone derivatives are screened anti-neoplastic activity was performed against human skin cancer cell line G361 at micro molecular concentrations. The compounds IA, IB, ID, IE, IF, IIB, IIC, IIIA, IVB, IVF, VA, VC, VD, VE was found to be with potent activity. These compounds exhibited an excellent activity while compared to reference standard doxorubicin at different micromolar concentrations as such of the synthesized compounds.
