Abstract: Following our previously reported compound 3, we designed and synthesized a series of new 2-(substituted amino)- [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines as potential tubulin polymerization inhibitors. Among them, analogue 4k, having a 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenylamino group, was observed to display excellent antiproliferative activity toward HeLa, HCT116, A549, and T47D with the IC50 values of 0.31, 1.28, 3.99 and 10.32 μM, respectively, which were approximately 32, 48, 4, and 5-fold improvement compared with 3. Importantly, 4k possessed significant selectivity in inhibiting cancer cell lines over the normal HEK293 cells. Moreover, futher mechanism analysis demonstrated that 4k caused G2/M arrest, induced cells apoptosis in HeLa cells, and manifested significant tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity with the IC50 value of 4.9 μM, which is comparable to CA-4 (IC50 = 4.2 μM). The observations performed in this study reveal that 2-arylamino- [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines represent a novel class of tubulin polymerization inhibitors with potent antiproliferative efficacy.
