  • Title: Preparation and antitumor activities of some derivatives of 5-methoxysterigmatocystin.
    Author: Essery JM, O'Herron FA, McGregor DN, Bradner WT.
    Journal: J Med Chem; 1976 Nov; 19(11):1339-42. PubMed ID: 1003414.
    Abstract:
    A series of derivatives of 5-methoxysterigmatocystin (3a,12c-dihydro-8-hydroxy-6,11-dimethoxy-7H-furol[3',2':4,5]furo[2,3-c]xanthen-7-one) has been prepared and evaluated for antitumor activity. The potency of the parent compound has been associated with the intact bisfurano ring system and with the double bond in the terminal furan ring. It has been shown that new substituents can be introduced in the xanthone portion of the molecule and that the antitumor activity is in some cases preserved.
