Substituted aromatic amines were diazotized followed by coupling with malononitrile to afford substituted phenyl hydrazono-malononitrile compounds 2a-c. Compounds 3a-c were prepared through the reaction of substituted phenyl hydrazono-malononitriles 2a-c with phenyl hydrazine, while the reaction of compounds 2a-c with hydrazine hydrate afforded diamino compounds 4a-c. The diamino compounds 4a-c was condensed with different substituted aromatic aldehydes to yield N-benzylidine pyrazole diamines 5a-i. The structure of the newly synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, MS spectral data and elemental analysis. Twelve novel compounds 3a-c and 5a-i were screened for their anticancer activities against breast carcinoma (T47D) and human hepatocarcinoma cell lines (Huh- 7) compared with Doxorubicin. The detailed synthesis, spectroscopic data and anticancer activities of the synthesized compounds were reported.
