Summary

A series of novel 6-fluoro-3-(4-piperidinyl)-1,2-benzisoxazole derivatives 5(a–m) were synthesized with different substituted aromatic/heterocyclic acid chlorides (R-CO-Cl) and characterized by 1H NMR, LC/MS, FTIR and elemental analyses. All the compounds synthesised were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The antiproliferative effects of the synthesised compounds were tested against viable human skin fibroblast cells and carcinoma cells namely HeLa cells, HT-29 cells, MCF-7 cells, HepG-2 cells by adopting positive and negative control. The importance of the aromatic and heterocyclic moiety was confirmed. From the SAR studies, it reveals that, the substitution at N-terminal of 6-fluoro-3-(4-piperidinyl)-1,2-benzisoxazole by the heterocyclic ring plays a dominant role and was responsible for the antiproliferative activity. Among the synthesized compounds 5a, 5d and 5k have showed potent antiproliferative activity on all the carcinoma cells tested.
