An efficient synthesis of new thiazolidin-4-one fused s-triazines as potential antimicrobial and anticancer agents

Abstract EN

As a part of our endeavor toward the synthesis of new heterocyclic bioactive agents, two series of thiazolidin-4-one fused s-triazines were synthesized by applying an efficient palladium catalyzed C–C Suzuki coupling using catalyst system Pd (OAC) 2, Xphos and K3PO4 as a base in toluene solvent.

Moreover, the synthesized analogs were further screened for their in vitro antimicrobial as well as anticancer efficacy against prostate cancer PC3 cells.

Some compounds displayed remarkable antimicrobial activity and noticeable anticancer activity.

It was observed that, both benzonitrile and nicotinonitrile are essential to increase the different pharmacological activities.

The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS analysis.
