ABSTRACT: The present work reports the synthesis of 20 novel fluorine-containing quinoline and pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives bearing a sulfonamide moiety. The new synthesized compounds were designed in compliance with the general
pharmacophoric requirements for carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibiting anticancer drugs, as this may play a role in their anticancer
activity. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against human breast cancer
cell line (MCF7). Compounds 11 and 12 exhibited better activities than the reference drug doxorubicin (IC50=71.8μM) with IC50 values of 52.6μM and 67.3μM, respectively. On the other hand, compounds 6, 10, and 13 showed IC50 values (71.8μM, 69.8μM, and 70.8μM, respectively) comparable to that of the reference drug doxorubicin. In addition, docking
of the synthesized compounds into human carbonic anhydrase isozyme II (hCA II) active site was performed in order to predict
the affinity and the orientation of these compounds at the isozyme active site. Also, the most active compounds, 11 and 12, were selected and evaluated for their ability to enhance the cell killing effect of γ-radiation.

ABSTRACT: Novel pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives 4a-e, 10, 14, 15, pyrazolopyrrolopyrimidine 13, pyrrolotriazolopyrimidine 5-9, 17 and pyrrolopyrimidotriazine 18 are reported herein. The design of these compounds was based upon the molecular modeling simulation of the fitting values and conformational energy values of the best-fitted conformers to VEGFRTK inhibitor hypothesis. This hypothesis was generated from its corresponding lead compounds using CATALYST software. The structures of these compounds were confirmed by microanalyses, IR, (1)H NMR, and mass spectral data. Compounds 6 and 15 showed interesting in vitro antitumor activity compared to doxorubicin as positive control. These results are nearly consistent with the molecular modeling studies. Docking studies were made on compound 15 to predict its binding mode. Moreover, compound 10 exhibited a significant radioprotective activity.
