5-Oxo-dihydropyranopyran derivatives as anti-proliferative agents; synthesis, biological evaluation, molecular docking, MD simulation, DFT, and in-silico pharmacokinetic studies.

ABSTRACT: A series of ethyl 2-amino-7-methyl-5-oxo-4-phenyl-4,5-dihydropyrano[4,3-b]pyran-3-carboxylate derivatives (4a-j) bearing different substitutions on the C₄-phenyl ring was synthesized. The anti-proliferative activity of all the synthesized compounds was assessed against two human cancer-cell lines, including SW-480 and MCF-7, by using MTT method. Derivatives 4g, 4i, and 4j, possessing 4-NO₂, 4-Cl, and 3,4,5-(OCH₃)₃ substitutions, were found to be the most potent compounds against both cell lines. The obtained IC₅₀ values for 4g, 4i, and 4j were 34.6, 35.9, and 38.6 μM against SW-480 cells and 42.6, 34.2, and 26.6 μM against MCF-7 cells, respectively. Evaluation of the free r
