Synthetic procedures have been developed which lead to the 2-aza congeners 3 and several related N-oxides 4.The analoques 3 exhibited a wide range of in vitro cytotoxicity against L1210 leukemia, the human colon adenocarcinoma cell line LoVo, and the doxorubicin resistant LoVo/DX cell line.Selected analogues of 3 showed significant P388 antileukemic activity in mice with 3c exhibiting high activity.This activity was also retained in the related N-oxide 4a.These heterocyclic bioisosteric models are representative of the first anthracene-9,10-diones which display antileukemic activity comparable to mitoxantrone.
