Popis: Building new biological molecules is challenging. Herein, imidazo[1,2-c]thiazoles were synthesized as a new class of heterobicyclic analogs through Pd-catalyzed cascade bicyclization from isonitriles with thioamides. The bicyclic scaffolds were constructed by inserting three molecules of isonitrile into two molecules of thioamide and then cyclizing them in a one-pot procedure. In vitro antitumor studies of these new compounds were conducted by using the MTT assay, and compound 3c showed excellent inhibitory effects against HepG2 at 7.06 ± 0.68 μM.
