The present invention relates to novel achiral seco-analogues of the DNA minor groove and sequence-selective alkylating agents (+)-CC1065 and the duocarmycins, depicted as general class I, II III, IV and V:
1
wherein X is a good leaving group, such as a chloride, a bromide, an iodide, a mesylate, a tosylate, an acetate, a quaternary ammonium moiety, a mercaptan, an alkylsulfoxyl, or an alkylsulfonyl group, preferably either a chloride, a bromide, or an iodide group. R
1
is a suitable minor groove binding agent to enhance the interactions of the achiral seco-cyclopropaneindole (CI) or an achiral seco-duocarmycin with specific sequences of DNA. Examples of the DNA binders are given in Table 4. The preferred DNA binders are groups A, C, D, E, F, G. H and I. R
1
can also include the following: t-butoxy, benzyloxy, 9-fluorenylmethyloxy or other common protecting groups for amines wherein X is a good leaving group, such as a chloride, a bromide, an iodide, a mesylate, a tosylate, an acetate, a quaternary ammonium moiety, a mercaptan, an alkylsulfoxyl, or an alkylsulfonyl group, preferably either a chloride, a bromide, or an iodide group. R
1
is a suitable minor groove binding agent to enhance the interactions of the covalently reactive achiral seco-pharmacophore with specific sequences of DNA. Examples of the DNA binders are given in Table 4. The preferred DNA binders are groups A, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L. R

and R
3
can be hydrogen or short chain alkyl (C1-C5) groups, preferably both being hydrogen atoms. The alkyl groups may be straight chain or branched and include such groups as ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl and hexyl. R
4
and R
5
can be hydrogen atoms, short alkyl groups, trifluoromethyl moieties, and alkyloxycarbonyl groups. The preferred R
4
and R
5
groups are methoxycarbonyl and trifluoromethyl. R can be either a benzyl, a benzyloxycarbonyl, a hydrogen atom, a 4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, or a N′-methylpiperazinyl-N-carbonyl group wherein X is a good leaving group, R
1
is a minor groove binding agent, such as the binding units of adozelesin and duocarmycins, netropsin and bisbenzimide. R
2
and R
3
can be hydrogen or short-chain alkyl (C1-C5) groups. R
4
and R
5
can be hydrogen atoms, short alkyl groups, trifluoromethyl moieties, and alkyloxycarbonyl groups. R can be either a benzyl, a benzyloxycarbonyl, a hydrogen atom, a 4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl, or a N′-methylpiperazinyl-N-carbonyl group. The present invention is further directed to pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and as a method for treatment of cancer using the subject compounds.
