N-Alkynyl Derivatives of 5-Fluorouracil: Susceptibility to Palladium-Mediated Dealkylation and Toxigenicity in Cancer Cell Culture

N-Alkynyl Derivatives of 5-Fluorouracil: Susceptibility to Palladium-Mediated Dealkylation and Toxigenicity in Cancer Cell Culture

Palladium-activated prodrug therapy is an experimental therapeutic approach that relies on the unique chemical properties and biocompatibility of heterogeneous palladium catalysis to enable the spatially-controlled in vivo conversion of a biochemically-stable prodrug into its active form. This strat...
