Abstract
Antitumor activity using 59 cancer cell lines and enzyme inhibitory activity of a newly synthesized pyrazoline-linked 4-methylsulfonylphenyl scaffold (compounds 18a-q) were measured and compared with those of standard drugs. Pyrazolines 18b, 18c, 18f, 18g, 18h, and 18n possessed significant antitumor activity, with a positive cytotoxic effect (PCE) of 22/59, 21/59, 21/59, 48/59, 51/59, and 20/59, respectively. The cancer cell lines HL60, MCF-7, and MDA-MB-231 were used to measure the IC50 values of derivatives 18c, 18g, and 18hvia the MTT assay method, and the results were compared with those of reference drugs. Derivatives 18g and 18h showed potent and broad-spectrum antitumor activities against HL60 (IC50 of 10.43, 8.99 μM, respectively), MCF-7 (IC50 of 11.7 and 12.4 μM, respectively), and MDA-MB-231 (IC50 of 4.07 and 7.18 μM, respectively). Compound 18c exhibited strong antitumor activity against HL60 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines with IC50 values of 8.43 and 12.54 μM, respectively, and moderate antitumor activity against MCF-7 cell lines with an IC50 value of 16.20 μM. Compounds 18c, 18g, and 18h remarkably inhibited VEGFR2 kinase (IC50 = 0.218, 0.168, and 0.135 μM, respectively) compared with the reference drug sorafenib (IC50 = 0.041 μM). Compounds 18g and 18h effectively inhibited HER2 kinase (IC50 = 0.496 and 0.253 μM, respectively) compared with erlotinib (IC50 = 0.085 μM). Compound 18h inhibited EGFR kinase (IC50 = 0.574 μM) with a potency comparable with that of the reference drug erlotinib (IC50 = 0.105 μM). Pyrazolines 18c, 18f, and 18h arrested the S/G2 phase of the cell cycle in HL-60 cells. In addition, derivatives 18c, 18f, and 18h revealed lower Bcl-2 protein expression anti-apoptotic levels and higher Bax, caspase-3, and caspase-9 expression levels. Molecular docking studies of derivative 18h into the binding sites of EGFR, HER2, and VEGFR2 kinases explored the interaction mode of these pyrazoline derivatives and their structural requirements for antitumor activity.

Abstract
In this study, The inhibitory actions of human carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) (hCA) isoforms I, II, IX, and XII are being examined using recently synthesized substituted hydroxyl Schiff derivatives based on the quinazoline scaffold 4-22. Quinazolines 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 15, and 18 reduce the activity of hCA I isoform effectively to a Ki of 87.6-692.3 nM, which is nearly equivalent to or more potent than that of the standard drug AAZ (Ki, 250.0 nM). Similarly, quinazolines 2, 3, and 5 and quinazoline 14 effectively decrease the inhibitory activity of the hCA II isoform to a KI of 16.9-29.7 nM, comparable to that of AAZ (Ki, 12.0 nM). The hCA IX isoform activity is substantially diminished by quinazolines 2-12 and 14-21 (Ki, 8.9-88.3 nM against AAZ (Ki, 25.0 nM). Further, the activity of the hCA XII isoform is markedly inhibited by the quinazolines 3, 5, 7, 14, and 16 (Ki, 5.4-19.5 nM). Significant selectivity levels are demonstrated for inhibiting tumour-associated isoforms hCA IX over hCAI, for sulfonamide derivatives 6-15 (SI; 10.68-186.29), and 17-22 (SI; 12.52-57.65) compared to AAZ (SI; 10.0). Sulfonamide derivatives 4-22 (SI; 0.50-20.77) demonstrated a unique selectivity in the concurrent inhibition of hCA IX over hCA II compared to AAZ (SI; 0.48). Simultaneously, benzenesulfonamide derivative 14 revealed excellent selectivity for inhibiting hCA XII over hCA I (SI; 60.35), whereas compounds 5-8, 12-14, 16, and 18-22 demonstrated remarkable selectivity for hCA XII inhibitory activity over hCA II (SI; 2.09-7.27) compared to AAZ (SI; 43.86 and 2.10, respectively). Molecular docking studies additionally support 8 to hCA IX and XII binding, thus indicating its potential as a lead compound for inhibitor development.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancer types of cancer with the highest mortality rates. However, while epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is an important parameter for lung cancer, EGFR inhibitors also show great promise in the treatment of the disease. Therefore, a series of new EGFR inhibitor candidates containing thiadiazole and pyrazole rings have been developed. The activities of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by in vitro MTT, (which is chemically 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide), cytotoxicity assay, analysis of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) by flow cytometry, and EGFR inhibition experiments. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were performed as in silico studies. Compounds 6d, 6g, and 6j showed inhibitor activity against the A549 cell line with IC50 = 5.176 ± 0.164; 1.537 ± 0.097; and 8.493 ± 0.667 μM values, respectively. As a result of MMP by flow cytometry, compound 6g showed 80.93% mitochondrial membrane potential. According to the results of the obtained EGFR inhibitory assay, compound 6g shows inhibitory activity on the EGFR enzyme with a value of IC50 = 0.024 ± 0.002 μM.

Abstract
Abstract
The reaction protocols and their continuous development to achieve the desired selectivity remain a primary target of organic chemistry, which is addressed here with the specific role of the cesium ion. The pharmacophore “2-styryl quinoline” was taken as a reference here because of the continuation of our work, where it was found fit as fusion inhibitors and anti-viral agents. The present protocol defines its importance for the synthesis of O-alkylated products. However, in most cases, N-alkylation proceeds because of nitrogen atoms’ more nucleophilic nature and electronic density. The cesium effect makes this possible because of the large cationic size and its affection for the oxygen atom. The plausible mechanism and its progression were demonstrated here with the help of density function theory calculation by analyzing the energy of intermediates. The protocol is also found suitable with microwave irradiation. Moreover, it gives the product a better yield in less reaction time. The present reaction protocol and its importance will address some of the crucial issues related to the synthesis of the complex molecule, and the present protocol will open up hope, where the selectivity and product yield would be a concern.

Abstract
The reaction between [PtCl2(L-L)] (L-L = dppe, dppp, dppb, dppf, Phen and Bipy) or [PtCl2(PPh3)2] with 1-benzyl-3-phenylthiourea (H2BPT) in a basic medium (CHCl3/EtOH) created new coordinated square planner Pt(II) complexes with [Pt(BPT)(L-L)] (1–4,6,7) and [Pt(BPT)(PPh3)2] (5) types. These complexes were fully characterized by analytical and spectroscopic techniques (i.e., IR, UV. Vis., 1H, and 31P NMR). The results indicated that the thiourea derivative ligand act as a dianion ligand bonded through both S and N atoms in a chelating mode or as a mono-anion ligand coordinated through a sulfur atom with Pt(II) ion. Cytotoxicity activity was performed by the MTT assay to determine anti-cancer activities against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The study indicated that IC50 values for MCF-7 cells were 10.96–78.90 µM. Additionally, the complexes [Pt(BPT)(dppe)] (1), [Pt(BPT)(PPh3)2] (5), and [Pt(BPT)2(Bipy)] (7) were investigated theoretically, where their quantum parameters were evaluated using the Gaussian 09 program using the theory of B3LYP/Def2TZVP//B3LYP/Lanl2dz. The calculation results confirmed the optimized structures of the complexes square planar geometry. However, the calculated bond lengths and angles showed a slightly distorted square planar geometry due to the trans influence of the sulfur atom. Additionally, complexes of [Pt(BPT)(dppe)] (1) and [Pt(BPT)(PPh3)2] (5) showed higher stability compared to [Pt(BPT)2(Bipy)] (7), which can be attributed to the higher back-donation of (1) and (5) complexes. Furthermore, among the three complexes, the [Pt(BPT)2(Bipy)] (7) complex possessed the lowest HOMO–LUMO gap, which may be a good candidate as the photo-catalyst material.

Abstract
In the current study, new benzimidazole-based 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by NMR, IR, MS, and elemental analysis. The final compounds were screened for cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231, SKOV3, and A549 cell lines and EGFR for inhibitory activities. Compounds 10 and 13 were found to be the most active against all the tested cell lines, comparable to doxorubicin, and exhibited significant inhibition on EGFR kinase, with IC50 0.33 and 0.38 μM, respectively, comparable to erlotinib (IC50 0.39 μM). Furthermore, these two compounds effectively suppressed cell cycle progression and induced cell apoptosis in MDA-MB-231, SKOV3, and A549 cell lines. The docking studies revealed that these compounds showed interactions similar to erlotinib at the EGFR site. It can be concluded that the synthesized molecules effectively inhibit EGFR, can arrest the cell cycle, and may trigger apoptosis and therefore, could be used as lead molecules in the development of new anticancer agents targeting EGFR kinase.

Abstract
Styryl quinolines are biologically active compounds with properties largely depending on the substituents on the styryl and quinoline rings. The supramolecular aspects of this class of compounds are rarely explored. In this study, two new series of styryl quinoline derivatives, bearing -OH and -NO2 groups at the eighthposition of the quinoline ring and -SCH3, -OCH3, and -Br groups on the styryl ring, have been developed, and their structural, supramolecular, and cytotoxic properties have been analyzed. Crystallographic analyses revealed the exciting substituent-dependent structural and supramolecular features of these compounds. In general, the 8 -OH substituted derivatives (SA series) exhibited a non-planar molecular geometry having larger dihedral angles (5.75-59.3°) between the planes of the aromatic rings. At the same time, the 8 -NO2 substituted derivatives (SB series) exhibited a more or less planar molecular geometry, as revealed by the smaller dihedral angles (1.32-3.45°) between the aromatic rings. Multiple O-H···O, C-H···O, O-H···N, and π-π stacking interactions among the molecules lead to fascinating supramolecular architectures such as hydrogen-bonded triple helices, zig-zag 1D chains, π-π stacked infinite chains, and so forth in their crystal lattice. Hirshfeld surface analyses confirmed the existence of strong π-π stacking and other weak bonding interactions in these compounds. The preliminary cytotoxic properties of SA and SB series compounds were evaluated against the human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa cells), which further highlighted the roles of functional substituents on the aromatic rings. The SA series compounds with the -OH substituent on the quinoline ring exhibited better cytotoxicity than the SB series compounds with a -NO2 substituent. Similarly, the electron-withdrawing group -Br on the styryl ring enhanced the cytotoxicity in both series. The IC50 values were 2.52-4.69 and 2.897-10.37 μM, respectively, for the SA and SB series compounds. Compound S3A having -OH and -Br groups on the quinoline and styryl ring, respectively, exhibited the best IC50 value of 2.52 μM among all the compounds tested. These findings confirm the relevance of the hydroxyl group in the eighth position of quinoline. In short, the present study attempts to provide a systematic analysis of the effects of aromatic ring substituents on the structural, supramolecular, and cytotoxic properties of styryl quinolines for the first time.

Abstract
A series of quinoline-uracil hybrids (10a-l) has been rationalized and synthesized. The inhibitory activity against hCA isoforms I, II, IX, and XII was explored. Compounds 10a-l demonstrated powerful inhibitory activity against all tested hCA isoforms. Compound 10h displayed the best selectivity profile with good activity. Compound 10d displayed the best activity profile with minimal selectivity. Compound 10l emerged as the best congener considering both activity (IC50 = 140 and 190 nM for hCA IX and hCA XII, respectively) and selectivity (S.I. = 13.20 and 9.75 for II/IX, and II/XII, respectively). The most active hybrids were assayed for antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activities against MCF-7 and A549. In silico studies, molecular docking, physicochemical parameters, and ADMET analysis were performed to explain the acquired CA inhibitory action of all hybrids. A study of the structure-activity relationship revealed that bulky substituents at uracil N-1 were unfavored for activity while substituted quinoline and thiouracil were effective for selectivity.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the radioprotective activity of silymarin, a plant substance with hepatoprotective activity, of four newly synthesized structural derivatives of anthranilic acid azomethines, and alkyl-2-styrylquinolinic acid, as well as to establish and assess the influence of the solvent type and bioactive compound dose on the in vivo radioprotective potential of the natural and novel synthetic compounds. Male Wistar strain rats weighing 110–120 g were used for the in vivo experiments. Fifteen minutes after i.p. injection of the compounds, the experimental animals were irradiated by 8 Gy. Results indicate that the compound 2-{[(3,5-dihydro-2-hydroxyphenyl)methylen] amino}-benzoic acid in a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight exhibited the highest radioprotective effect, whereas the natural extract silymarin did not manifest radioprotective potential, even in high doses.

Abstract
Abstract:
In the present-day scenario, heterocyclic derivatives have revealed the primary function of various medicinal agents precious for humanity. Out of a diverse range of heterocycles, Styrylquinolines scaffolds have been proved to play an essential role in a broad range of biological activities, includinganti-HIV-1, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-Alzheimer activity with antiproliferative effects on tumor cell lines.
Due to the immense pharmacological importance, distinct synthetic methods have been executed to attain new drug entities from Styrylquinolines. Various schemes for synthesizing Styrylquinolines derivatives like one-pot, ultrasound-promoted heterogeneous acid-catalysed, microwave-assisted, solvent-free, and green synthesis were discussed in the present review. Some products of Styrylquinolines are in clinical trials, and patents are also granted for the novel synthesis of Styrylquinolines. According to the structure-activity relationship, replacement at the R-7 and R-8 positions is required for various activities.
In this review, recent synthetic approaches in the medicinal chemistry of Styrylquinolines and potent Styrylquinolines derivatives based on structural activity relationships (SAR) are outlined. Moreover, their primary methods and modifications are also discussed.

Abstract
Quinoline, a privileged scaffold in medicinal chemistry, has always been associated with a multitude of biological activities. Especially in antimalarial and anticancer research, quinoline played (and still plays) a central role, giving rise to the development of an array of quinoline-containing pharmaceuticals in these therapeutic areas. However, both diseases still affect millions of people every year, pointing to the necessity of new therapies. Quinolines have a long-standing history as antimalarial agents, but established quinoline-containing antimalarial drugs are now facing widespread resistance of the Plasmodium parasite. Nevertheless, as evidenced by a massive number of recent literature contributions, they are still of great value for future developments in this field. On the other hand, the number of currently approved anticancer drugs containing a quinoline scaffold are limited, but a strong increase and interest in quinoline compounds as potential anticancer agents can be seen in the last few years. In this review, a literature overview of recent contributions made by quinoline-containing compounds as potent antimalarial or anticancer agents is provided, covering publications between 2018 and 2020.

Abstract
Hydrazone is a bioactive pharmacophore that can be used to design antitumor agents. We synthesised a series of hydrazones (compounds 4–24) incorporating a 4-methylsulfonylbenzene scaffold and analysed their potential antitumor activity. Compounds 6, 9, 16, and 20 had the most antitumor activity with a positive cytotoxic effect (PCE) of 52/59, 27/59, 59/59, and 59/59, respectively, while compounds 5, 10, 14, 15, 18, and 19 had a moderate antitumor activity with a PCE of 11/59–14/59. Compound 20 was the most active and had a mean 50% cell growth inhibition (GI50) of 0.26 µM. Compounds 9 and 20 showed the highest inhibitory activity against COX-2, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2.97 and 6.94 μM, respectively. Compounds 16 and 20 significantly inhibited EGFR (IC50 = 0.2 and 0.19 μM, respectively) and HER2 (IC50 = 0.13 and 0.07 μM, respectively). Molecular docking studies of derivatives 9, 16, and 20 into the binding sites of COX-2, EGFR, and HER2 were carried out to explore the interaction mode and the structural requirements for antitumor activity.

Abstract
New cyanobenzofurans derivatives 2-12 were synthesised, and their antiproliferative activity was examined compared to doxorubicin and Afatinib (IC50 = 4.17-8.87 and 5.5-11.2 µM, respectively). Compounds 2 and 8 exhibited broad-spectrum activity against HePG2 (IC50 = 16.08-23.67 µM), HCT-116 (IC50 = 8.81-13.85 µM), and MCF-7 (IC50 = 8.36-17.28 µM) cell lines. Compounds 2, 3, 8, 10, and 11 were tested as EGFR-TK inhibitors to demonstrate their possible anti-tumour mechanism compared to gefitinib (IC50 = 0.90 µM). Compounds 2, 3, 10, and 11 displayed significant EGFR TK inhibitory activity with IC50 of 0.81-1.12 µM. Compounds 3 and 11 induced apoptosis at the Pre-G phase and cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. They also increased the level of caspase-3 by 5.7- and 7.3-fold, respectively. The molecular docking analysis of compounds 2, 3, 10, and 11 indicated that they could bind to the active site of EGFR TK.

Abstract
According to the classical pharmacophore fusion strategy, a series of 6-arylureido-4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives ( Compounds 7a - t ) were designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated by the standard CCK-8 method and enzyme inhibition assay. Among the title compounds, Compounds 7a , 7c , 7d , 7f , 7i , 7o , 7p , and 7q exhibited promising anti-proliferative bioactivities, especially Compound 7i , which had excellent antitumor activity against the A549, HT-29, and MCF-7 cell lines (IC50 = 2.25, 1.72, and 2.81 μM, respectively) compared with gefitinib, erlotinib, and sorafenib. In addition, the enzyme activity inhibition assay indicated that the synthesized compounds had sub-micromolar inhibitory levels (IC50, 11.66-867.1 nM), which was consistent with the results of the tumor cell line growth inhibition tests. By comparing the binding mechanisms of Compound 7i (17.32 nM), gefitinib (25.42 nM), and erlotinib (33.25 nM) to the EGFR, it was found that Compound 7i could extend into the effective region with a similar action conformation to that of gefitinib and interact with residues L85, D86, and R127, increasing the binding affinity of Compound 7i to the EGFR. Based on the molecular hybridization strategy, 14 compounds with EGFR inhibitory activity were designed and synthesized, and the action mechanism was explored through computational approaches, providing valuable clues for the research of antitumor agents based on EGFR inhibitors.

Abstract
The expected one-pot multiple functionalization of hydroxyquinolines and quinolones with acylacetylenes (20 mol% KOH, 5 equiv. H2O, MeCN, 55-60 °C), which, according to the previous finding, might involve the addition of OH and NH-functions to the triple bond and insertion of acylacetylenes into the quinoline scaffold, retains mainly on the formation of chalcone-quinoline ensembles in up 99% yield. The higher functionalized quinolines can be obtained in a synthetically acceptable yield, when the above ensembles are treated with the second molecule of acylacetylenes. Thus, the further insertion of second molecule of the acetylenes into the quinoline scaffold occurs as a much slower process indicating a strong adverse substituent effect of the remote chalcone moiety.

Abstract
To identity fast-acting, multistage antimalarial agents, a series of pyridylvinylquinoline-triazole analogues have been synthesized via CuAAC. Most of the compounds display significant inhibitory effect on the drug-resistant malarial Dd2 strain at low submicromolar concentrations. Among the tested analogues, compound 60 is the most potent molecule with an EC50 value of 0.04 ± 0.01 μM. Our current study indicates that compound 60 is a fast-acting antimalarial compound and it demonstrates stage specific action at the trophozoite phase in the P. falciparum asexual life cycle. In addition, compound 60 is active against both early and late stage P. falciparum gametocytes. From a mechanistic perspective, compound 60 shows good activity as an inhibitor of β-hematin formation. Collectively, our findings suggest that fast-acting agent 60 targets dual life stages of the malarial parasites and warrant further investigation of pyridylvinylquinoline hybrids as new antimalarials.

Abstract
The quinoline ring system has long been known as a versatile nucleus in the design and synthesis of biologically active compounds. Currently, more than one hundred quinoline compounds have been approved in therapy as antimicrobial, local anaesthetic, antipsychotic, and anticancer drugs. In drug discovery, indeed, over the last few years, an increase in the publication of papers and patents about quinoline derivatives possessing antiproliferative properties has been observed. This trend can be justified by the versatility and accessibility of the quinoline scaffold, from which new derivatives can be easily designed and synthesized. Within the numerous quinoline small molecules developed as antiproliferative drugs, this review is focused on compounds effective on c-Met, VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), and EGF (epidermal growth factor) receptors, pivotal targets for the activation of important carcinogenic pathways (Ras/Raf/MEK and PI3K/AkT/mTOR). These signalling cascades are closely connected and regulate the survival processes in the cell, such as proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and angiogenesis. The antiproliferative biological data of remarkable quinoline compounds have been analysed, confirming the pivotal importance of this ring system in the efficacy of several approved drugs. Furthermore, in view of an SAR (structure-activity relationship) study, the most recurrent ligand–protein interactions of the reviewed molecules are summarized.

Abstract
Structures are reported for two matched sets of substituted 4-styrylquinolines which were prepared by the formation of the heterocyclic ring in cyclocondensation reactions between 1-(2-aminophenyl)-3-arylprop-2-en-1-ones with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. (E)-3-Acetyl-4-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethenyl]-2-methylquinoline, C21H19NO2, (I), (E)-3-acetyl-4-[2-(4-bromophenyl)ethenyl]-2-methylquinoline, C20H16BrNO, (II), and (E)-3-acetyl-2-methyl-4-{2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethenyl}quinoline, C21H16F3NO, (III), are isomorphous and in each structure the molecules are linked by a single C-H...O hydrogen bond to form C(6) chains. In (I), but not in (II) or (III), this is augmented by a C-H...π(arene) hydrogen bond to form a chain of rings; hence, (I)-(III) are not strictly isostructural. By contrast with (I)-(III), no two of ethyl (E)-4-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethenyl]-2-methylquinoline-3-carboxylate, C22H21NO3, (IV), ethyl (E)-4-[2-(4-bromophenyl)ethenyl]-2-methylquinoline-3-carboxylate, C21H18BrNO2, (V), and ethyl (E)-2-methyl-4-{2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethenyl}quinoline-3-carboxylate, C22H18F3NO2, (VI), are isomorphous. The molecules of (IV) are linked by a single C-H...O hydrogen bond to form C(13) chains, but cyclic centrosymmetric dimers are formed in both (V) and (VI). The dimer in (V) contains a C-H...π(pyridyl) hydrogen bond, while that in (VI) contains two independent C-H...O hydrogen bonds. Comparisons are made with some related structures, and both the regiochemistry and the mechanism of the heterocyclic ring formation are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The quinoline scaffold has been an attraction due to its pharmacological activities such as anti-HIV, anti-neoplastic, anti-asthmatic, anti-tuberculotic, anti-fungal, and anti-bacterial. OBJECTIVE The designed quinoline-3-carboxylate derivatives were synthesized through a two-step reaction and evaluated for antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and K562 cell lines. METHODS Synthesized compounds were characterized by modern analytical techniques like NMR, 2DNMR, mass, and IR. Moreover, the purity of compounds was analyzed through the HPLC. In the progress of biological results, all synthesized compounds were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and K562 cell lines. RESULTS The synthesized compounds exhibited micromolar inhibition in all over the ranges, however, some of the compounds showed better activity than the standard anticancer drug such, as 4m and 4n with the IC50 value of 0.33μM against the MCF-7 cell line, and the compounds 4k and 4m showed potential activity against the K562 cell line with the IC50 value of 0.28μM. The anti-cancer activities of compounds were found to be through the up-regulation of intrinsic apoptosis pathways. CONCLUSION The biological data of all compounds in both cell lines were utilized for the structural activity relationship of the quinoline-3-carboxylate pharmacophore. The active lead was further validated through rigorous in silico studies for the drug-likeness (QED) and Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity (ADMET) properties. Here in the present research is utilized for the demonstration of an important pharmacophore, which could be utilized for further development to become a lead as an anticancer agent with minimal toxicity.

Abstract
The antitumor activity of newly synthesised triazolophthalazines (L-45 analogues) 10-32 was evaluated in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HePG-2), breast cancer (MCF-7), prostate cancer (PC3), and colorectal carcinoma (HCT-116) cells. Compounds 17, 18, 25, and 32 showed potent antitumor activity (IC50, 2.83-13.97 μM), similar to doxorubicin (IC50, 4.17-8.87 μM) and afatinib (IC50, 5.4-11.4 μM). HePG2 was inhibited by compounds 10, 17, 18, 25, 26, and 32 (IC50, 3.06-10.5 μM), similar to doxorubicin (IC50, 4.50 μM) and afatinib (IC50, 5.4 μM). HCT-116 and MCF-7 were susceptible to compounds 10, 17, 18, 25, and 32 (IC50, 2.83-10.36 and 5.69-11.36 μM, respectively), similar to doxorubicin and afatinib (IC50 = 5.23 and 4.17, and 11.4 and 7.1 μM, respectively). Compounds 17, 25, and 32 exerted potent activities against PC3 (IC50, 7.56-12.28 μM) compared with doxorubicin (IC50, 8.87 µM) and afatinib (IC50 7.7 μM). Compounds 17 and 32 were the strongest PCAF inhibitors (IC50, 5.31 and 10.30 μM, respectively) and compounds 18 and 25 exhibited modest IC50 values (17.09 and 32.96 μM, respectively) compared with bromosporine (IC50, 5.00 μM). Compound 17 was cytotoxic to HePG2 cells (IC50, 3.06 μM), inducing apoptosis in the pre-G phase and arresting the cell cycle in the G2/M phase. Molecular docking for the most active PCAF inhibitors (17 and 32) was performed.

Abstract
Background: :
Styrylquinolines are characteristic fully aromatic compounds with flat,
rather lipophilic structures. The first reports on their synthesis and biological activity were published
roughly a century ago. However, their low selectivity, unfavorable toxicity and problems
with their mechanism of action significantly hampered their development. As a result, they have
been abandoned for most of the time since they were discovered.
Objective: :
Their renaissance was observed by the antiretroviral activity of several styrylquinoline
derivatives that have been reported to be HIV integrase inhibitors. Subsequently, other activities
such as their antifungal and anticancer abilities have also been revisited.
Methods:
In the present review, the spectrum of the activity of styrylquinolines and their use in
drug design is presented and analyzed.
Results:
New properties and applications that were reported recently have re-established
styrylquinolines within medicinal and material chemistry. The considerable increase in the number
of published papers regarding their activity spectrum will ensure further discoveries in the field.
Conclusions:
Styrylquinolines have earned a much stronger position in medicinal chemistry due to
the discovery of their new activities, profound mechanisms of action and as drug candidates in
clinical trials.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis, Chagas disease and African sleeping sickness have been considered some of the most important tropical protozoan afflictions. As the number of drugs currently available to treat these human illnesses is severely limited and the majority has poor safety profiles and complicated administration schedules, actually there is an urgent need to develop new effective, safe and cost-effective drugs. Because quinoline alkaloids with antiprotozoal activity (quinine, chimanine, cryptolepine or huperzine groups) were historically and are still essential models for drug research to combat these parasitic infections, synthetic or semi-synthetic quinoline-based molecules are important for anti-kinetoplastid drug design approaches and synthetic methods of their preparation become a key task that is the central subject of this review. Its goal is to highlight the advances in the conventional and current syntheses of new 2-(3,4)-alkenyl (aryl) quinoline derivatives, which kill the most important kinetoplastid protozoa, - Leishmania and Trypanosoma and could be useful models for antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal research. An attempt has been made to present and discuss the more recent contributions in this field over the period 2015-2019, paying special attention to molecular design, synthetic efforts to new green reaction conditions for classical methods such as Skraup synthesis, Friedländer synthesis, Conrad-Limpach, Doebner-Miller, as well as contemporary methods like Gould-Jacobs, Meth-Cohn and Povarov reactions. This review includes brief general information on these neglected tropical diseases, their current chemotherapies, and primary natural models (quinoline alkaloids), suitable for development of anti-kinetoplastid quinoline-based agents. The main part of the review comprises critical discussion on the synthesis and chemistry of new quinolines diversely substituted by alkyl (alkenyl, aryl) fragments on the pyridine part of the quinoline skeleton, which could be considered interesting analogues of chimanine alkaloids. The methods described in this review were developed with the aim of overcoming the drawbacks of the traditional protocols using revolutionary precursors and strategies.

Abstract
A rapid and efficient synthesis of 2-vinylquinolines via trifluoromethanesulfonamidemediated olefination of 2-methylquinoline and aldehyde under microwave irradiation is reported. Biological evaluation of these scaffolds demonstrates that 2-vinylquinolines 3x - 3z possess excellent antimalarial activities against chloroquine-resistant Dd2 strain of Plasmodium falciparum (IC50 < 100 nM).

Abstract
Novel 6(3-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-3-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones (7a–e) were synthesized from different enaminones (6a–e) with 6-hydrazinyl-3-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione. 2,6(4-2-Substituted-1,3,5-triazin-1(2H)-yl)-3-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones (8a–k) were synthesized from the reaction of 1-(2,4-dioxo-3-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolin-6-yl)thiourea, urea, or guanidine (3a–c) with enaminones (6a–e), and a series from 3-substituted-2-imino-1,3,5-triazin-1(2H)-yl-sulfonyl-phenyl-1-methylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (12a–j) were obtained from the reaction of N-(diaminomethylene)-4-(1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)benzenesulfonamide (11) with the enaminone (6a–j). The antitumor activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against two human cell lines: human colon carcinoma HCT116 and human hepatocellular carcinoma HEP-G2. Some of the tested compounds showed significant potency compared to the reference drug staurosporin.

Abstract
A simple and flexible synthesis of a new series of 2,4-bis((E)-styryl)quinoline-3-carboxylates (3a-t) has been achieved for the first time in good yields via successive Arbuzov/Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) reaction in one-pot using the newly-synthesized ethyl 4-(bromomethyl)-2-(chloromethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylate as the substrate. Our synthetic protocol is as attractive and powerful as it is simple, tolerates a wide range of substituents, and does not involve the use of expensive reagents or catalysts. These title compounds belong to a new class of quinoline derivatives and their antitumor activity was assessed on human cancer cell lines (A549, HT29 and T24). The MTT assay showed compounds 3h, 3k and 3t had significant inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 1.53, 1.38 and 2.36 μM against A549 and 1.50, 0.77 and 0.97 μM against HT29, respectively, much better than the reference cisplatin.
