Abstract
A series of 1,3,4-trisubstituted and 3,4-disubstituted 2-azetidinones were synthesized in order to study the relation between their structure and biological characteristics. Study of the cytotoxic activity of these compounds revealed an anticancer effect in (3S,4S)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-2-azetidinones containing 2-acetoxybenzoyloxymethyl and 2,2-dicyanovinyl substituents at position 4 in vitro with respect to a wide range of monolayer cultures of cancer cells.
