1,4-Benzoquinones, 1,4-naphthoquinones, as well as pyridines and quinolines having 2-alkyloxaziridinyl substituents were synthesized.The method involves formation of aldimines and their oxidation to oxaziridines. 1,4-Dimethoxyarenes bearing oxaziridinyl substituents were converted into the corresponding quinones with silver(II) dipicolinate.Some of the oxaziridinylquinones and -azines exhibit activity against KB cells, and the structure-activity relationship is discussed in terms of the current theory of biologically activated alkylating agents.
