A series of novel hybrid compounds between piperonyl and imidazolium salts were prepared from tryptophol by four steps of reduction, mesylation, coupling and salt formation. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS and X-ray crystallographic analysis. These compounds were evaluated in vitro against a panel of human tumor cell lines. The results showed that 1-((benzo[d] [1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)-3-(2-naphthylmethyl))-5,6-dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium bromide (30) exhibited remarkable inhibitory activity selectively against HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7 and SW480 cell lines compared with DDP. In particular, the compound was more selective to HL-60 cell lines with IC50 values 7.2-fold lower than DDP. Further studies showed that compound 30 has the effect of inducing SMMC-7721 cell line arrest and cell apoptosis in cell cycle G0/G1.
