ANTICANCER ACTIVITIES OF EVEN NUMBERED MONOKETO EICOSANOIC ACID ANILIDES AND SEMICARBAZONES

This study was undertaken to examine the possible cytotoxic effect of anilide and semicarbazone derivatives of (4-12) monoketo eicosanoic acids (3.125 – 100 µM) on canine mammary tumour cell line (CMT-U27) as compared with doxorubicin. Among these compounds, 8-semicarbazone eicosanoic acid (3) and 10-keto eicosanoic acid anilide (9) displayed effective cytotoxic potential against CMT-U27 and IC50 concentrations were recorded at 1.952 µM and 54.00 µM, respectively.
