    Abstract:
    Fluorinated 2-phenyl-4-quinolone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in National Cancer Institute's 60 human tumor cell line in vitro screen. From the results, the ketone moiety plays an essential role in activity. Among the compounds tested, 2'-fluoro-6-pyrrol-2-phenyl-4-quinolone (13) exhibited the most potent cytotoxic activities (log GI(50) < -8.00) against renal and melanoma tumor cell lines. Compound 13 was also a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization (IC(50) = 0.46 microM) and of radiolabeled colchicine binding to tubulin, with activities comparable to those of the potent antimitotic natural products colchicine, podophyllotoxin, and combretastatin A-4.
