tumor-bearing mice. Among the most active agents were the mesylates, tosylates, and N-(chloroethyl)carbamates of 2- and 6-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone. That bioreductive activation to a quinone methide might be involved in the mechanism of action of these agents was shown by the finding that compounds with the best leaving groups were the most efficacious as antineoplastic agents.
许多抗肿瘤药同时具有醌核和适当的取代基,这些取代基可使其充当生物还原性烷基化剂。为了开发具有独特性质的此类新化合物,我们合成了一系列2和6-甲基-1,4-萘醌衍生物,并评估了它们对肉瘤180腹水细胞的抗肿瘤活性。这些醌中的几种表现出抗肿瘤活性,从而显着延长了荷瘤小鼠的存活时间。其中活性最高的是2-和6-甲基-1,4-萘醌的甲磺酸酯,甲苯磺酸酯和N-(氯乙基)氨基甲酸酯。
