Abstract

2-(β-d-xylofuranosyl) thiazole-4-carboxamide (2) and two new tiazofurin analogues with 5- hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-tetrahydro-furo [2, 3-d][1, 3] dioxol-6-ol moiety as a sugar mimic (27 and 28) have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antitumour activity against a panel of human tumour cell lines (K562, HL 60, Jurkat, Raji and HeLa). In contrast to previous literature reports, a metabolic MTT assay revealed remarkable cytotoxicity of 2 ...
