The design, structural characterization and potential medical application of novel 1,2,4-oxadiazole and trifluoromethylpyridine derivatives are described. Starting from two readily available compounds, 4-(3-(tert-butyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)aniline (1) and 2-(3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)ethanamine (10), other bioactive moieties were incorporated (such as pyrazole, pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine), in order to modify the lipophilicity of the molecules, so that the transport of the bioactive units though the cell wall barrier could be improved. In vitro anti-cancer activity of these compounds was assessed by a monolayer proliferation assay in a panel of 12 cell lines. A good potency was found for 17, which exhibited a mean IC50 value of 5.66 mu M, while the other compounds exhibit minor or no activity. The solid state structures of compounds 3, 5, 7-9, 11, 12 and 17 were established by X-ray diffraction analyses. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
