Synthesis and Structure−Activity Relationships of Potential Anticancer Agents: Alkylcarbamates of 3-(9-Acridinylamino)-5-hydroxymethylaniline
摘要:
A series of potential 9-anilinoacridine antitumor agents, 3-(9-acridinylamino)-5-hydroxymethylaniline (AHMA) derivatives with monosubstituent at C4' and disubstituents at C4' and C5' of the acridine ring and their alkylcarbamates, were synthesized for evaluation of their antitumor activity. A structure-activity relationship (SAR) study showed that the AHMA-alkylcarbamates were more potent than their corresponding parent AHMA compounds. In addition, the cytotoxicity of the AHMA-alkylcarbamate decreased with increasing length and size of the alkyl function. Among these compounds, AHMA-ethylcarbamate (18) and 4'-methyl-5'-dimethylaminoethylcarboxamido-AHMA-ethylcarbamate (34) possess potent cytotoxicity on the inhibition of human leukemic HL-60 cell growth in culture. Further in vivo studies of these compounds displayed significant anticancer therapeutic effects in mice bearing sarcoma 180, Lewis lung carcinoma, and P388 leukemia.

antileukemic agent amsacrine with a 3'-methylamino group provides a compound (3) with a broader spectrum of action, including in vivo activityagainst experimental solidtumors. The synthesis, physicochemical properties, and biological activity of a series of acridine-substituted analogues of 3 are described. The compounds show higher levels of DNA binding, water solubility, and in vivo solidtumor activity
