Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Quinazoline Derivatives as Potential Anticancer Agents (II). 2015

Jianping Yong, and Canzhong Lu, and Xiaoyuan Wu

Under the guidance of our previous work, we synthesized 21 new structures of quinazolines (3a~3u) and evaluated their in vitro anticancer activity against A549, HCT116 and MCF-7 cell lines using the MTT method. Most compounds showed good to excellent anticancer activity. In particular, 3o (regarded as erlotinib analogues) has marked anticancer activity against A549, HCT116 and MCF-7 cell lines (IC50s: 4.26, 3.92 and 0.14 μM, respectively) as compared with the standard anticancer drug gefitinib (IC50s: 17.9, 21.55 and 20.68 μM, respectively), and which can be regarded as the best candidate for development of anticancer drugs.

D021241	Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization	A mass spectrometry technique used for analysis of nonvolatile compounds such as proteins and macromolecules. The technique involves preparing electrically charged droplets from analyte molecules dissolved in solvent. The electrically charged droplets enter a vacuum chamber where the solvent is evaporated. Evaporation of solvent reduces the droplet size, thereby increasing the coulombic repulsion within the droplet. As the charged droplets get smaller, the excess charge within them causes them to disintegrate and release analyte molecules. The volatilized analyte molecules are then analyzed by mass spectrometry.
