Abstract

A series of novel sulfonyl urea derivatives were designed as potential anticancer agents. These compounds were prepared in good yields by the reaction of 1-(3-ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(methanesulfonyl)­ethan-1-amine with various aromatic and aliphatic isocyanates under ultrasonic irradiation. Two of the syn­the­sized sulfonyl urea derivatives showed potent antiproliferative properties comparable to the known anticancer drug doxorubicin.
