Synthesis and cytotoxic activities of 1-benzylidine substituted β-carboline derivatives
摘要:
A series of new beta-carboline derivatives, bearing a benzylidine substituent at position-1, has been prepared and evaluated in vitro against a panel of human cell lines. The N-2-benzylated beta-carbolinium bromates represented the most interesting cytotoxic activities. In particular, compounds 19 were found to be the most potent compounds with IC50 values lower than 5 mu M against 10 strains human tumor cell lines. These results confirmed that the N-2-benzyl substituent on the beta-carboline ring played an important role in the modulation of the cytotoxic activities and suggested that further development of such compounds may be interest.
