Abstract
Six new 4-alklyamino compounds 6.1-6.4, 7.1-7.3, derived from podophyllotox in have been synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity in vit ro. All analogues of podophyllotoxin showed inhibitory activity against L12 10 and K562 cells. Compounds 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.1, 7.2 are as potent or more potent than VP-16 in their inhibition of L1210 cells, The inhibitory activi ties of all analogues against K562 cells are less potent than that of VP-16 .
