Master’s Thesis at the University of Basrah Explores the Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Selected Nitroanilines
A master’s thesis at the College of Pharmacy, University of Basrah, focused on the synthesis and biological evaluation of certain nitroanilines and novel Schiff bases derived from heterocyclic compounds.
The thesis, submitted by graduate student Noor Al-Huda Jaleel Al-Mousawi, aimed to synthesize and characterize new derivatives of pyrazole (nitroanilines and hydrazones) and to investigate their potential anticancer activity.
The research involved the synthesis of two series of pyrazole-derived compounds: the first comprising nitroaniline derivatives (N1–N4), and the second consisting of hydrazone derivatives (N5–N8). The study further evaluated the anticancer activity of the synthesized compounds against the lung cancer cell line (A549) and compared their effects with those on a normal cell line (HdFn).
