Pyrimidoacridine derivatives as potential antitumor agents

I Antonini et al. Farmaco. 1992 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

A series of some N-alkylaminoalkyl derivatives of pyrimido[5,6,1-d,e]acridine-1,3,7-trione (3) was synthesized as new potential antitumor drugs, starting from the suitable 9,10-dihydro-9-oxo-4-acridinecarboxamides and using phosgene as cyclizing agent. 1-(9,10-dihydro-9-oxo-4-acridinecarbonyl)-3-alkyl-2-imidazolido nes were also obtained as side products. The final products 3 and some carboxamides were tested "in vitro" against L 1210 leukemia and "in vivo" against P388 leukemia. Of the tested compounds, one is active "in vivo", another shows significant cytotoxic activity "in vitro", but is inactive or toxic "in vivo".
