Molecular Modeling, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of <i>N</i>-Phenyl-4-Hydroxy-6-Methyl-2-Quinolone-3-CarboxAmides as Anticancer Agents

The emergence of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3Kα) in cancer development has accentuated its significance as a potential target for anticancer drug design. Twenty one derivatives of <i>N</i>-phenyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-quinolone-3-carboxamide were synthesized and characterized using...
