In our search for novel small molecules activating procaspase-3, we have designed and synthesised a series of novel acetohydrazides incorporating quinazolin-4(3H)-ones (5, 6, 7). Biological evaluation revealed eight compounds with significant cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines (SW620...
