A protocol for the palladium(0)-catalyzed amidation of heteroaromatic tosylates was successfully developed. The methodology proved to be effective for a variety of heteroaryl tosylates including the pyridine, pyrimidine, quinoline and quinoxaline ring systems. Successful carbon-nitrogen bond formation with these heteroaryl

Novel series of 1-(arenesulfonyl)imidazolidin-2-one (3a-i) and 1,3-bis(arenesulfonyl)imidazolidin-2-one (5a-i) have been synthesized and tested for their antitumor activity against 60 tumor cell lines taken from nine different organs. A significant inhibition for cancer cells was observed with series 5a-i compounds compared
