A variety of 4-N atom substituted derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activities using 4-methylpiperazine-1-carbodithioic acid 3-cyano-3,3-diphenyl-propyl ester 4 as lead compound. Among them, compound 6a without any substituent on 4-N atom (R-1 = H) was found to be the most active anticancer agent with IC50 = 5.3 mu M against HL-60 and IC50 = 11.5 mu M against Bel-7402, respectively. Increase in the polarity and/or introduction of suitable acyl groups at the 4-N atom of the lead compound 4 are favorable for the improvement of activity. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
