Abstract

Preparation of a series of 5-substituted 4-nitro-4-penten-1-01 acetate and related analogs is described. Many compounds in this category demonstrated confirmed inhibitory activity against Walker carcinosarcoma 256 in preliminary biological testing. Structure-activity study indicated that the nitroalkene portion of the side chain is essential for the oncolytic property. The relative activity and toxicity of these compoiinds are dependent on the length of the ...
