The increased rates of cancer encouraged scientists to look for new potent anticancer agents. Sydnone derivatives were found to have a wide range of biological activities, including antitumor and antimicrobial. This research aimed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of some sydnones against prostate cancer and to investigate their binding interaction with the apoptotic enzyme caspase 3. 3-arylsydnones were prepared as described in the literature by the cyclization of the corresponding nitroso compounds. The sydnone rings were then acetylated using acetic acid in the presence of phosphorous pentoxide. The cytotoxicity was determined in vitro against prostate cancer cell line (PC3) using MTT cell viability assay. The interaction mode between sydnones and caspase 3 was evaluated by molecular docking approaches using Autodock 4.2. Ten independent docking runs were carried out for each ligand and docking results were evaluated using the calculated free binding energy.It was found that sydnone compounds showed cytotoxic activity against PC3 cell line. 3-(4-chlorophenyl)sydnone and 3-(4-nitrophenyl)sydnone were the most active compounds having IC50 of 0.91 and 0.36 mM.
