Design, Synthesis, And Biological Evaluation Of Indole-Based 1,4-Disubstituted Piperazines As Cytotoxic Agents, Meri̇ç Köksal Akkoç, Mi̇ne Yarim Yüksel, İrem Durmaz, Rengül Çeti̇n Atalay

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of 3-[(4-substitutedpiperazin-1-yl)methyl]-1H-indole derivatives were synthesized, and their structures were confirmed by spectral analysis. All the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activity in vitro against 3 human tumor cell lines: human liver (HUH7), breast (MCF7), and colon (HCT116). Among the designed derivatives, most of the compounds showed significant cytotoxicity against liver and colon cancer cell lines with lower IC_{50} concentrations than the standard drug 5-fluorouracil. Compound 3s, with 3,4-dichlorophenyl substituent on the piperazine ring, was the most active in suppressing the growth of all screened cancer cells.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of 4-benzyl/phenyl-3-(1-methyl-1H-indole-2-yl)-1H- 1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione (4a,b) and 2-{4-[benzyl/phenyl-5- (substitutedbenzylthio)]-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl}-1-methyl-1H-indole derivatives (5a-p) were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro scavenging of DPPH and superoxide radical, and lipid peroxidation inhibition effects as well as their antimicrobial properties. DPPH radical scavenging capacity was found to be equipotent with BHT and found in compounds containing 1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione moiety (4a,b). With regard to antimicrobial properties, compound 5k showed slight antimicrobial activity against all the test microorganisms.
