Multidrug resistance ( MDR ) is still the main barrier to attaining effective results with chemotherapy. Discovery of new chemo‐reversal agents is needed to overcome MDR . Our study focused on a better way to obtain novel drugs with triazole rings that have an MDR reversal ability through click chemistry. Among 20 developed compounds, compound 19 had a minimal cytotoxic effect compared to tariquidar and verapamil ( VRP ) and showed a higher reversal activity than VRP through increased accumulation in K562/A02 cells. Compound 19 also played an important role in the P‐gp efflux function of intracellular Rh123 and doxorubicin ( DOX ) accumulation in K562/A02 cells. Moreover, compound 19 exhibited a long lifetime of approximately 24 hr. These results indicated that compound 19 is a potential lead compound for the design of new drugs to overcome cancer MDR .
