The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of trans 1-(indol-2-yl)-2-(1-methylpyridinium and 1-methylquinolinium-2-yl) ethylenes is reported. In vitro antitumour activity tests show that quinolinium derivatives are more active towards MCF7 (breast), LNCap (prostate) and U87 (human gliobastoma) carcinoma cells than pyridinium ones.

Abstract

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of trans 1-(indol-2-yl)-2-(1-methylpyridinium and 1-methylquinolinium-2-yl) ethylenes is reported. In vitro antitumour activity tests show that quinolinium derivatives are more active towards MCF7 (breast), LNCap (prostate) and U87 (human gliobastoma) carcinoma cells than pyridinium ones.
