Design, synthesis, and analysis of antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activities of nitrile derivatives containing a benzofuran scaffold: EGFR inhibition assay and molecular modelling study

Design, synthesis, and analysis of antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activities of nitrile derivatives containing a benzofuran scaffold: EGFR inhibition assay and molecular modelling study

New cyanobenzofurans derivatives 2–12 were synthesised, and their antiproliferative activity was examined compared to doxorubicin and Afatinib (IC50 = 4.17–8.87 and 5.5–11.2 µM, respectively). Compounds 2 and 8 exhibited broad-spectrum activity against HePG2 (IC50 = 16.08–23.67 µM), HCT-116 (IC50 =...
