Abstract
Hydrosoluble poly(3,6,9-trioxaundecamethylene phosphonate) with attach ed cytotoxic bis(2-chloroethyl)amine in the side chain was synthesized by chemical modification of the corresponding polyphosphonate via the Atherton-Todd reaction. The structure of the product was confirmed by H-1, C-13 and P-31 NMR spectroscopy. Preliminary in vitro cytotoxic s tudies revealed that the polymeric derivative exhibited an eight fold more cytotoxic potency against human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lin e HepG2 than against murine leukemia cell line L1210.
