Abstract

Novel water-soluble 4β-amino-4′-O-demethylepipodophyllotoxin derivatives (6–12), designed to enhance minor groove binding ability, were synthesized and screened against NCI's in vitro disease-oriented human tumor cells. Among them, 4′-O-demethyl-4β-[N-(1‴- methyl-4‴-nitro-pyrrole-2‴-carbonyl)-4 ″-aminoanilino]-4-desoxypodophyllotoxin (10) and its HCl salt (11) were found to exhibit potent cytotoxic activities (average log GI50=− 6.91,− ...
