Many human cancers have been associated with the deregulation of the mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor tyrosine kinase (MET) receptor, a promising drug target for anticancer drug discovery. Herein, we report the discovery of a novel structure of potent chalcone-based derivatives type II c-Met inhibitors which are comparable to Foretinib (IC50 = 14 nM) as a potent reference drug. Based on our design strategy, we also expected an anti-tubulin activity for the compounds. However, the weak inhibitory effects on microtubules were confirmed by cell cycle analyses implicated that the observed cytotoxicity against HeLa cells probably was not derived from tubulin inhibition. Compounds 14q and 14k with IC50 values of 24 nM and 45 nM, respectively, demonstrated favorable inhibition of MET kinase activity, and desirable bonding interactions in the ligand-MET enzyme complex stability in molecular docking studies.
