Synthesis of nitrogen and sulfur analogues of the seco-CI alkylating agent
Tercel, Moana,Denny, William A.
, p. 509 - 519 (2007/10/03)
Two complementary syntheses of amino seco-CI (CI = 1a,2,3,5-tetrahydro-1H-cycloprop[1,2-c]indol-5-one) alkylating agents starting from isomeric chloronitrobenzoic acids are reported. Further reactions of these compounds, including diazotisation to phenol and thiophenol derivatives, and alkylation and acylation reactions relevant to the preparation of pro-drug forms are also described.
Nitrogen and sulfur analogues of the seco-CI alkylating agent: Synthesis and cytotoxicity
Tercel,Denny,Wilson
, p. 2735 - 2740 (2007/10/03)
The first synthesis of seco-CI alkylating agents bearing a nitrogen or sulfur substituent in place of the oxygen at C-6 is described. In comparison with a phenol, an amino substituent confers reduced but significant cytotoxicity, even when mono- or dimethylated, while sulfur analogues are considerably less potent.
