The present study aims to create spiro-N-(4-sulfamoyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxamide derivatives with anticancer activities. The in vitro anticancer evaluation showed that only the novel spiro-acenaphthylene tethered-[1,3,4]-thiadiazole (compound ) exhibited significant anticancer efficacy as a selective inhibitor of tumor-associated isoforms of carbonic anhydrase. Compound demonstrated considerable efficacy against the renal RXF393, colon HT29, and melanoma LOX IMVI cancer cell lines, with IC values of 7.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates a new ciprofloxacin-chalcone hybrid (CP derivative) for its potential anticancer effects as inhibitors of Topoisomerases I and II.
  • In vitro tests demonstrate that the CP derivative significantly reduces the growth of cancer cells, outperforming the standard drug Staurosporine.
  • The compound induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, and shows effective inhibition of Topo I and II enzymes, suggesting its potential as a new anticancer therapy.

A new group of thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives of ciprofloxacin having butyryl linker 3a-l was synthesized via an alkylation of thiazolidine-2,4-diones with butyryl ciprofloxacin with yield range 48-77% andfully characterized by various spectroscopic and analytical tools. Anti-cancer screening outcomes indicated that 3a and 3i possess antiproliferative activities against human melanoma LOX IMVI cancer cell line with IC values of 26.7 ± 1.

A novel derivative of ciprofloxacin (Cpx) was synthesized and characterized using various analytical techniques, including FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, TEM and SEM analysis, H NMR, C NMR, and HPLC analysis. The newly prepared Cpx derivative (Cpx-Drv) exhibited significantly enhanced antibacterial properties compared to Cpx itself. In particular, Cpx-Drv demonstrated a 51% increase in antibacterial activity against and a 30% improvement against .

A new series of nitric oxide-donating fluoroquinolone/oximes was prepared in this study. The nitric oxide release from the prepared compounds was measured using a modified Griess colorimetric method. The antitubercular evaluation of the synthesized compounds indicated that ketone derivatives 2b and 2e and oximes 3b and 3d exhibited somewhat higher activity than their respective parent fluoroquinolones.
