Abstract

Based on the combination principle in drug design, thirteen pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives containing indole moiety were designed and synthesized. The target compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. Their in vitro cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines (HeLa、MGC-803、MCF-7、BEL-7404) has been investigated and most of the tested compounds displayed moderate antiproliferative activity. Especially, compound 5m exhibited the highest level of antiproliferative activity with an IC50 value <30 μmol·L-1 for HeLa, MGC-803 and MCF-7. IC50 value of methyl 3-((4-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)thio)-1H-indole-6-carboxylate (5m) to MCF-7 was (4.02±0.92) μmol·L-1, which was better than etoposide (10.1±0.62 μmol·L-1) and camptothecin (5.93±0.56 μmol·L-1). Further biological evaluation of these compounds suggested that these compounds showed selective inhibitory activity against Topo II as a possible intracellular target, and all compounds didn't show inhibitory activity against Topo I.
