A series of beta-elemene monosubstituted ester, carbamate, acylamide, and carbamidine derivatives were synthesized via intermediates, beta-elemene alcohol and beta-elemene amine, which were synthesized from the traditional Chinese medicine, beta-elemene. The structures of all the new compounds were characterized by NMR, IR, and HRMS. Their in vitro antiproliferative activities on HeLa cell line were tested through the WST-1 assay. The results show that the in vitro antiproliferative activities of the novel compounds are improved compared to that of the parent beta-elemene.
