Novel antitumoral agents with quinonic structure were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities. This study examines the cytotoxic activities of several aryl benzo[g]isoquinoline-5,10-dione derivatives and a number of aminoacyl dihydrothieno[2,3-b]naphtho-4.9-dione (DTNQ) derivatives containing amino acids in position 3 of the ring system. Compound 6 showed remarkable cytotoxic activity at submicromolar concentration not only against several human leukaemia and solid tumour cell lines, but also toward sensitive and resistant human cell lines.

Abstract
Novel antitumoral agents with quinonic structure were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities. This study examines the cytotoxic activities of several aryl benzo[g]isoquinoline-5,10-dione derivatives and a number of aminoacyl dihydrothieno[2,3-b]naphtho-4.9-dione (DTNQ) derivatives containing amino acids in position 3 of the ring system. Compound 6 showed remarkable cytotoxic activity at submicromolar concentration not only against several human leukaemia and solid tumour cell lines, but also toward sensitive and resistant human cell lines.File in questo prodotto:
