Abstract
14 new naphthoquinones were prepared and tested against human cancer cell lines PC-3 (prostate), HCT-116 (colon carcinoma), SNB-19 (glioblastoma), HL-60 (leukemia) and MCF-7 (breast), and a nontumor cell line L929 (murine fibroblasts) to determine cytotoxicity with the MTT assay. 8-OH-β-lapachones (14a, 14c, 14d) presented best results, showing low IC50 values and high selectivity for HCT-116 and HL-60 tumor cells.
