Synthesis of Novel Lipophilic N-Substituted Norcantharimide Derivatives and Evaluation of Their Anticancer Activities

This research attempted to study the effect of lipophilicity on the anticancer activity of N-substituted norcantharimide derivatives. Twenty-three compounds were synthesized and their cytotoxicities against five human cancer cell lines studied. The lipophilicity of each derivative was altered by its...
