title: Synthesis of some new diaryl and triaryl hydrazone derivatives as possible estrogen receptor modulators.
abstract: 1,2-Bis(4-substituted phenyl)-2-methyl ethanone (2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazones and 1-naphthyl-1-(4-substituted phenyl)-methanone (2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazones have been synthesized and evaluated for their anti-implantation, uterotrophic, antiuterotrophic, anticancer and antimicrobial activities. Diphenolic hydrazone (compound 6) showed maximum uterotrophic inhibition of 70%, whereas compound 20 exhibited cytotoxicity in the range of 50-70% against MCF-7 and ZR-75-1 human malignant breast cell lines.
