. In vitro biological evaluation revealed the most active compound 4d with an inhibitory concentration of 42.87 μM against K562 and 47.42 μM on A549 cells. The anticancer activity of this naphthylidene isoxazolidinedione derivative was evident by cell cycle and apoptosis assays, which showed arrest of the G2/M phase (65.6%) of the K562 cells and induction of apoptosis with 21.47% apoptotic cells as compared to 0.2% of untreated cells, respectively.

All compounds were loaded (smiles) on this online tool, and the output suggested that all chemical candidates obey Lipinski’s rule of five, indicative of their drug-likeliness (Table 1). These substances likewise showed a range of tolerable clogP values between 2.00 and 5.00. The sur- face sum of all polar atoms in a molecule is represented by topological polar surface area (TPSA; the acceptable range is 20−130 Å2 ), and all compounds in the series fell within this range. The bioavailability score for these compounds was 0.55. Overall, all the compounds were pre- dicted to have desired drug-like properties (indicated by Lipinski’s rule of five,37 Muegge’s filter,38 Veber’s rule,39 Egan rule,40 and Ghose filter41 ).
