Abstract

(V) and dimethyl 2, 7-fluorenedisulfonate (TII), were prepared for arititunior screening. I1 ethanesulforiyl esters have been reported2 to be active cancer chemotheraputic agents. Busulfan, 1, 4-di (methanesulfonyloxy)-butane, is a well-known representative of this type of alkylating agent. In order to determine if replacement of the alkane chain of four carbon atoms by a ring system such as fluorene would produce compounds with antineoplastic ...
