Abstract:


Aim: In this study, a neoteric and expedient oxidation method is applied for a variety of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives such as 1,4-dihydro- 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-diacetylpyridine, 3,5-bis-hydrazono--2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine, and 3,5-bis-thiazoly-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydro pyridine.

Method: This simple oxidation is based upon the in situ generation of nitrous acid from an aqueous sodium nitrite and acetic acid mixture and could be used to downgrade costs, sustain resources, and minimize chemical wastes. Also, a molecular modeling strategy was used to study the mechanism of action for various derivatives of bis-hydrazinylidene- thiazole as the protein Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (VEGFR TK) inhibitor through evaluating their binding scores and modes compared with Sorafenib as a reference standard.

Result: The results revealed that the interaction of hydrazinylidene and thiazole as an anticancer Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor has been improved. Conclusion: Additionally, the compounds exhibiting the highest activity were assessed for their potential anticancer effects against HepG-2, MCF-7, and WI-38 cells, and the outcomes demonstrated encouraging activity against cancer.
