Esters of 4'-demethyl-4-deoxypodophyllotoxin (DDPT) with alkanoic acids and alkanedioic acids were prepared and tested for cytotoxic and antitumor activity. Among 19 esters, esters of propanoic acid, tetradecanedioic acid, 13-carboxyundecanoic acid, and hexadecanedioic acid improved the antitumor activity compared with that of the starting compounds, DDPT.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011034 Podophyllotoxin A lignan (LIGNANS) found in PODOPHYLLIN resin from the roots of PODOPHYLLUM plants. It is a potent spindle poison, toxic if taken internally, and has been used as a cathartic. It is very irritating to skin and mucous membranes, has keratolytic actions, has been used to treat warts and keratoses, and may have antineoplastic properties, as do some of its congeners and derivatives.
