Title: Synthesis and antitumour activity of novel diterpenequinone salvicine and the analogs.

Authors: Zhang JS, Ding J, Tang QM, Li M, Zhao M, Lu LJ, Chen LJ, Yuan ST.

Abstract: A novel diterpenequinone named salvicine (4), structurally modified derivative of a natural product, and a series of the novel analogs have been prepared. Most of the analogs were found to be potently active against tumor cell lines in vitro. Further study on 4 in vivo demonstrated that it possessed a significant antineoplastic activity against murine S-180 Sarcoma and Lewis lung cancer, and human lung adenocarcinoma xenografts A-549 and LAX-83. The preclinical studies of 4 are now under way.
