Abstract
Resveratrol is a potential chemopreventive agent and can be isolated from grape skins and other dietary sources. The Wittig reaction and the decarbonylative Heck reaction were employed to synthesise analogues of this stilbene. Fluorinated derivatives of this stilbene were synthesised maintaining the 3,4′,5-substitution pattern. The hydroxyl groups were also replaced by amino groups and the biological activity evaluated. The compounds were assayed on a variety of cell lines, primarily the non-small lung carcinoma cell line DLKP-A. Analogues were evaluated alone and in combination with a known chemotherapeutic agent epirubicin.
