Abstract

Podophyllotoxin is a natural product isolated from two important medicinal plants podophyllum emodi and podophyllum peltatum. Its semi synthetic derivatives etoposide (VP-16) and teniposide (VM-26) are currently in clinical use in the treatment of many cancers, particularly small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC), malignant lymphoma and testicular cancer. In addition podophyllotoxin exhibits strong antimitotic, antiAIDS, antitropical skin disease, antimalarial, virucidal, fungicidal and other biological activities. The new tetralone esters (9a-d) of podophyllotoxin analogues are synthesized in good yields by chalcone route to study their structure-activity relationship. All the products obtained are characterized by spectral and elemental analysis data. The antimitotic activities of all the synthesized new tetralone esters are determined by onion-root tip method.
