A series of novel 1-arylmethyl-3-aryl-1H-pyrazole-5-carbohydrazide hydrazone derivatives were synthesized and the effects of all the compounds on A549 cell growth were investigated. The results showed that all compounds had almost inhibitory effects on the growth of A549 cells. The study on structure-activity relationships and prediction of lipophilicities of compounds showed that compounds with LogP values in the range of 4.12-6.80 had inhibitory effects on the growth of A549 cells, and among of them the hydrazone derived from salicylaldehyde had much more inhibitory effects.
