Unusual cytotoxicities of 5-(acylethynyl)-1-(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyluracils
摘要:
5-(Acylethynyl)-1-(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl uracils (2)-(6) were synthesised in excellent yields from 1-(2-acetoxyethoxy)methyl-5-iodouracil (7) utilising palladium-copper catalysed reactions. Compounds (2)-(5) were shown to be highly active against CCRF-CEM (IC50 0.6-1.6 mu M) and L1210/0 cells (IC50 0.7-2.2 mu M) in culture, and thus exhibit greater activity than their parent bases.
