Title: Synthesis and biological activity of new bispyridinium salts of 4,4'-bispyridyl-5,5'-perfluoroalkyl-2,2'-bisoxazoles.

Abstract: A series of bispyridinium compounds were synthesized by a short sequence of reactions from symmetric diamides. All compounds were tested for their antiproliferative activity against HT-29, a cell line derived from a human colon adenocarcinoma, and their inhibitory activity against choline kinase (ChoK), a novel anticancer molecular target already in clinical trials. Most of the compounds analyzed showed good antiproliferative activities, in the micromolar range, with the identification of promising lead molecules as a new family of potential inhibitors of ChoK.
