Abstract
The novel synthesis of N-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl) benzo[d] oxazol-2-amine 4 was described in this study. The new compounds N-arylthioureas 3a-c and 4, along with a series of glucose-modified imines 5a-g, were evaluated for their antitumor activity against human myeloid leukemia cell lines (HL-60 cells), gastric carcinoma (BGC-823 cells), liver carcinoma (Bel-7402 cells), and oral carcinomas (KB cells). The antibacterial potency of these compounds was also determined using an inhibition zone diameter test. Although none of the compounds were active against human cancer cells, compound 4 was found to be the most active compound against Escherichia coli.
