Abstract
Synthesis, antiproliferative activity and the X-ray single-crystal structure of the 3-benzylthio-4-propargylselenoquinoline are described. The title compound belongs to the group of the acetylenic derivatives of thioquinolines, which have been intensively investigated as a source of new anticancer agents. The comparative study regarding the X-ray structure, the molecular electrostatic potential analysis, and structure-activity relationship for the title compound and the 3-methylthio-4-propargylthioquinoline and 3-methylthio-4-propargylselenoquinoline are presented.
