Abstract: A new series of 3-(((9H-purin-6-yl)amino)methyl)-4,6-dimethylpyridin-2(1H)-one derivatives were designed, synthesized and demonstrated to act as tubulin polymerization inhibitors. These new derivatives showed significant antitumor activities, among which SKLB0533 demonstrated to be the most potent compound, with IC50 values ranging from 44.5 to 135.5 nM against seven colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cell lines. Remarkably, SKLB0533 exhibited no activity against other potential targets, such as 420 kinases and EZH2. Besides, SKLB0533 inhibited tubulin polymerization, arrested the cell cycle at the G2/M phase and induced apoptosis in CRC cells. Furthermore, SKLB0533 suppressed tumour growth in the HCT116 xenograft model without inducing notable major organ-related toxicity, suggesting that SKLB0533 could be used as a promising lead compound for the development of new antitumor agents.
