Abstract
Osthol [7-methoxy-8-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)chromen-2-one] isolated from Prangos pabularia was used as a starting material for the synthesis of its various derivatives via modifications of the lactone ring. The resulting compounds were fully characterized by spectral techniques and evaluated for their anticancer activity against Hep-G2 (human hepatoma), HeLa (cervical carcinoma), U-87 (brain cancer) and MCF-7 (breast cancer) cell lines using MTT assay. All synthesized derivatives exhibited higher activity than that of osthol. Among this series, 4-bromophenyl, 3-hydroxyphenyl, and p-tolyl derivatives showed excellent cytotoxic activity against U-87 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 6–7.3 µM.
