In vitro anticancer activity and SAR studies of triazolyl aminoacyl(peptidyl) penicillins

Abstract

A library of triazolyl aminoacyl(peptidyl) penicillins was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against HeLa and B16-F0 cell lines. Structure–activity relationship studies were carried out, and minimal structural requirements were determined. Among the tested compounds, derivatives 7f, 7p and 7m demonstrated the highest anticancer activity and a promising selectivity profile against these two cell lines.
