The reaction of 5‐amino‐3‐methylisoxazole ( 1 ) with formalin and secondary amines gave the corresponding Mannich bases 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 . Alkylation of isoxazole derivative 1 with Mannich bases hydrochloride gave unsubstituted isoxazolo[5,4‐ b ]pyridine derivatives 8a , 8b via alkylation at position 4. Moreover, coupling reaction of 1 with different diazonium salts gave the corresponding mono and bisazo dyes of isoxazole derivative. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antitumor activity compared with 5‐fluorouracil as a well‐known cytotoxic agent using Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells. Interestingly, the obtained results showed clearly that compounds 3 , 15 , 8b , 4 , 8a , and 5 exhibited high antitumor activity than 5‐fluorouracil.
