New 1,2,3-Triazole-Containing Hybrids as Antitumor Candidates: Design, Click Reaction Synthesis, DFT Calculations, and Molecular Docking Study.

ABSTRACT: In an effort to improve and achieve biologically active anticancer agents, a novel series of 1,2,3-triazole-containing hybrids were designed and efficiently synthesized via the Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction of substituted-arylazides with alkyne-functionalized pyrazole-[1,2,4]-triazole hybrids. The structure geometry of these new clicked 1,2,3-triazoles was explored by density functional theory (DFT) using the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level; also, the potential activity of the compounds for light absorption was simulated by time-dependent DFT calculations (TD-DFT). The antitumor impacts of the newly synthesized compounds were in vitro estimated to be towards the human liver cancer cell line (HepG-2), the human colon cancer cell line (HCT-116), and human b
