[Polymethylene derivatives of nucleic bases with omega-functional groups: VII. Cytotoxicity in the series of N-(2-oxocyclohexyl)-omega-oxoalkyl substituted purines and pyrimidines].
New polymethylene derivatives of nucleic bases with a beta-diketo function in the omega-position were obtained by alkylation of uracil, thymine, cytosine, hypoxanthine, adenine, and N(2)-isobutyryl guanine with 2-omega-chloroal-kanoyl)cyclohexanones. The physical and chemical characteristics of the compounds synthesized and their effect on the K562 and HCT116 tumor cell lines were studied.
