Abstract
Thirty quinoxalines bearing a substituted anilino group on position 2, a carboethoxy or carboxy group on position 3 and a trifluoromethyl gr oup on position 6 or 7 of the heterocycle were prepared in order to ev aluate in vitro anticancer activity. Preliminary screening performed a t NCI showed that most derivatives exhibited a moderate to strong grow th inhibition activity on various tumor panel cell lines between 10(-5 ) and 10(-4) molar concentrations. Interesting selectivities were also recorded between 10(-8) and 10(-6) M for a few compounds. One single compound exhibited good activity against Candida albicans.
