ABSTRACT
Quinoline has recently become an important heterocyclic molecule due to its numerous industrial and synthetic organic chemistry applications. Quinoline derivatives have been used in clinical trials for a variety of medical conditions that causes cancer. The present literature study is composed of recent progress (mainly from 2010 to the present) in the production of novel quinoline derivatives as potential anti-cancer agents, as well as their structure-activity relationship, which will provide insight into the development of more active quinoline hybrids in the future. The present review comprises the synthetic protocols of biologically active Quinoline analogs with their structure-activity relationship studies as anti-cancer agents, which provide depth view of work done on quinoline derivatives to the medicinal chemist for future research.

Due to their diverse applications in industrial and synthetic organic chemistry, quinoline and 1,3,4-oxadiazole have become important heterocyclic compounds. Quinoline and 1,3,4- oxadiazole compounds have been developed for various medical conditions such as anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antimalarial, antioxidants, anti-HIV, anticonvulsant, antiviral, etc. The current review includes synthetic protocols for biologically active 1,3,4-oxadiazole incorporating quinoline hybrids with their structure-activity relationship to explore work (Mainly from 2010 to 2021) based on 1,3,4-oxadiazole-quinoline hybrids to the medicinal chemist for further research in the development of the molecule.
