Page column 32-33, (2010/02/05)
Methoxy and ethoxy substituted 3-aroyl-2-arylbenzo[b]thiophenes and benzo[b]thiophene analogues are described for use in inhibiting tubulin polymerization. The compounds' use for treating tumor cells is also described. Additional aspects described here are certain diaryl ether benzo[b]thiophene derivatives. Also described are particular analogs derived from dihydronaphthalene which have proven particularly effective. Certain new benzofuran analogs are described, as well as certain sulfur oxide benzo[b]thiophene analogs. Important compounds described herein include the first nitrogen-containing derivatives of combretastatin. These include nitro, amino and azide combrdtastatin derivatives.

Two new aryl azides, (Z)-1-(3'-azido-4'-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3'',4'',5''-trimethoxyphenyl)ethene 9 and (Z)-1-(4'-azido-3'-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3'',4'',5''-trimethoxyphenyl)ethene 5, modeled after the potent antitumor, antimitotic agent combretastatin A-4 (CA-4)
