Abstract
Asymmetric synthesis of α-quaternary chiral lactam derivatives as novel anticancer agents and evaluation of their cytotoxic potentials and spectrums are reported. Among the developed lactam derivatives, the most active new compounds (S)-4m and (S)-4n synthesized via asymmetric phase-transfer catalytic alkylation in very high optical yields (98% ee) show promising in vitro anticancer activities with low micromolar IC50 values against colon, uterus, lung, and breast human cancer cells.
