Abstract

A series of methylthiazonaphthalimides was synthesized and quantitatively evaluated as efficient DNA intercalators, antitumor agents and DNA photocleavers. A₁ showed both efficient antitumor activities against cell lines of A549 and P388 with IC₅₀ of 82.8 and 31 nM, respectively. A₃ was the strongest antitumor agent against A549 with the IC₅₀ of 20.8 nM. A₂, the most efficient DNA intercalator, was found to be the strongest DNA photocleaver via superoxide anion. An explanation was given for the disaccord between antitumor and DNA photocleaving activities.
