Abstract: A series of N'-1-[2-anilino-3-pyridyl]carbonyl-1-benzenesulfonohydrazide derivatives (7a-i) was synthesized and five of them were selected by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity. Three of the investigated compounds 7d, 7f and 7g exhibited significant anticancer activity in the primary assay and further tested against a panel of 60 human tumour cell lines. Compound 7g showed 50% growth inhibitory activity in leukaemia, melanoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, renal cancer and breast cancer cells with GI(50) value of 3.2-9.6 microM. The synthesized compounds (7a-i) were also evaluated for their antibacterial activity against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains of bacteria. Most of these compounds showed better inhibitory activity in comparison to the standard drugs.
