Abstract

A new unexpected synthetic non-catalytic method for the synthesis of novel heteryl hydrazones for base-modification of nucleoside analogs has been developed. Characterizations of the products have been performed using NMR spectroscopy and single crystal x-ray diffraction analysis. Further in vitro anti-proliferative potency of the compounds against NCI 60 cell lines has been estimated. The results indicate anti-cancer activity by the compounds against several of the cancer cell lines.
