Abstract

A series of novel substituted thiochromones and thiochroman-4-ones was synthesized. Compounds were designed as analogues of naphthoquinone and as potential “bioreductive alkylating agents” and were tested for antitumor activity. The lead compound, 3- (chloromethyl) thiochromone 1, l-dioxide (4), inhibited Ehrlich ascites tumor growth by 100% in CF1 male mice at 10 (mg/kg)/day ip. Similarly, 18 of the 29 related compounds ...
