Abstract
A new series of N-(6-chloro-1,1-dioxo-1,4,2-benzodithiazin-3-yl)arylsulfonamides 23-48 have been synthesized as potential anticancer agents. All compounds were screened for their cytotoxic activity against six human tumor cell lines. The selected compounds 23-27, 30, 31, 33, 35, 38, 42, 45, and 46 were further tested at the US National Cancer Institute for their in vitro activities against a panel of 53-59 human tumor cell lines. The compounds 23-26, 30, 31, 33, 38, 42, 45, and 46 showed 50% growth inhibitory activity in low micromolar concentration (GI(50)=0.03-4.9 microM) against one or more human tumor cell lines (Table 3). The prominent compound with remarkable activity (GI(50)=0.03 microM, TGI=1.3 microM) and selectivity toward melanoma UACC-257 cell line was N-(6-chloro-7-cyano-1,1-dioxo-1,4,2-benzodithiazin-3-yl)-N-(phenyl)-5-bromothiophene-2-sulfonamide 46.
