Androgen receptor antagonists and anti-prostate cancer activities of some newly synthesized substituted fused pyrazolo-, triazolo- and thiazolo-pyrimidine derivatives

Int J Mol Sci. 2014 Nov 24;15(11):21587-602. doi: 10.3390/ijms151121587.

Abstract

A series of substituted pyrazole, triazole and thiazole derivatives (2-13) were synthesized from 1-(naphtho[1,2-d]thiazol-2-yl)hydrazine as starting material and evaluated as androgen receptor antagonists and anti-prostate cancer agents. The newly synthesized compounds showed potent androgen receptor antagonists and anti-prostate cancer activities with low toxicity (lethal dose 50 (LD50)) comparable to Bicalutamide as reference drug. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and MS spectral data and elemental analysis. The detailed synthesis, spectroscopic data, LD50 values and pharmacological activities of the synthesized compounds are reported.
