Abstract

Based on the core skeleton of the total synthesized bisbibenzyl marchantin C, riccardin D and plagiochin E, a series of brominated and aminomethylated derivatives of above three bisbibenzyls have been synthesized and their cytotoxic activity against KB, MCF-7 and PC3 cell lines has been preliminary evaluated. The bio-test results revealed that the brominated derivatives 21, 22, 24, 25 and 28 exhibited excellent antiproliferative activity, with IC50 ...
