Herein we report novel hybrid compounds based on valproic acid and DNA-alkylating triazene moieties, 1, with therapeutic potential for glioblastoma multiforme chemotherapy. We identified hybrid compounds 1d and 1e to be remarkably more potent against glioma and more efficient in decreasing invasive cell properties than temozolomide and endowed with chemical and plasma stability. In contrast to temozolomide, which undergoes hydrolysis to release an alkylating metabolite, the valproate hybrids showed a low potential to alkylate DNA. Key physicochemical properties align for optimal CNS penetration, highlighting the potential of these effective triazene based-hybrids for enhanced anticancer chemotherapy.

A kinetic study of the reaction between 3-alkyl-1-aryltriazenes and substituted acetic acids has been made in solvent acetone over the temperature range 21-37 deg C.Ea is 17.3 +/- 0.3 kcal mol-1 and log A is 10.3 +/- 0.1.Influence of the substituents on the reaction rate has been analyzed.The Hammett correlation with ? gave a ρ value of -0.96 for para-aryl substituted triazenes and +0.35 for meta- and para-substituted phenylacetic acid.The rate of decomposition of triazenes is also affected by changing the alkyl group.From these results a duality in mechanism is proposed; first, a simultaneous protonation and alkyl group expulsion to be the rate-determining step when R is tertiary, benzylic and possibly secondary.Secondly, a concerted mechanism for the protonation of nitrogen and cleavage of the N-R bond for primary alkyl groups.
