<p>Quinolines are benzopyridine complexes present in many modern antimalarial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and other useful pharmaceuticals and natural products.1,2 Quinolines form the scaffold for many potent anticancer drugs; this is because quinolines can undergo both nucleophilic and electrophilic substitution reactions, can be ingested and inhaled by humans without any harm, and possess a great deal of biological importance.3 My research has focused on synthesizing 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline analogs. The 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline scaffold was modified using various amine groups to obtain amide analogs as well as see how a change in the scaffold affects the anticancer activity of the synthesized complexes by screening them against kinases such as FLT3, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK9 to see if they are effective inhibitors. The synthesized complexes were then characterized using proton, carbon NMR and FTIR spectroscopy.</p>
