Popis: Quinolinones have been known for a long time as broad-spectrum synthetic antibiotics. More recently, the anticancer potential of this group of compounds has been investigated. Following this direction, we obtained a small library of 3-methylidene-1-sulfonyl-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones with various substituents at positions 1, 2, 6, and 7 of the quinolinone ring system. The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized analogs was tested in the MTT assay on two cancer cell lines in order to determine the structure–activity relationship. All compounds produced high cytotoxic effects in MCF-7, and even higher in HL-60 cells. 2-Ethyl-3-methylidene-1-phenylsulfonyl-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-one, which was over 5-fold more cytotoxic for HL-60 than for normal HUVEC cells, was selected for further tests. This analog was shown to inhibit proliferation and induce DNA damage and apoptosis in HL-60 cells.
