Abstract

A novel series of 2-aryl-1, 2, 4 – triazolo [1, 5-a] pyridine derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities in vitro against Human ovarian cancer cell line (HO-8910) and Human liver cancer cell line (Bel 7402). Most compounds showed high or mediate activity against the cancer cell lines when compared with Cisplatin. Two of them were tested the apoptosis on Bel 7402.

Keywords: Synthesis, antitumor activity, 2- aryl-1, 2, 4, –, triazolo [1, 5-a] pyridine
