Starting compound 1 was synthesized according to reference. 1 Benzylidene thiazole pyrimidin-3(5H)-ones were synthesized reactions of 1 with bromoacetic acid and various aryl-aldehydes in the same vessel via one-step, unlike studies in the literature. Quantum chemical parameters and full geometry optimizations for all compounds were computed using DFT based on B3LYP. Cytotoxic action potential of synthesized compounds was evaluated using trypan blue dye exclusion and MTT assays in different cell lines including adenocarcinoma alveolar basal epithelial-like adherent A549 cells, the colon adenocarcinoma HT-29 cells, prostate adenocarcinoma DU-145 cells, and diploid ARPE-19 retinal pigment epithelial cells. Embryotoxicity and genotoxicity assessments were performed on pluripotent human embryonal carcinoma NT2 and human lymphocyte cells, respectively. Compound A1 exhibited good anticancer activity on A549 and DU-145 cell lines, and the compounds including A3, 4, 6, and 9 induced cytotoxicity on A549 cells. The compounds A1-10 also showed a good biosafety profile at relatively lower concentrations.
