Abstract
A series of hydroxylated 1,4-naphthoquinone oximes were designed and synthesized. The in vitro cytotoxicity of these compounds was evaluated against five human cancer cell lines and human skin fibroblast cell line. Among them, compounds (1E,4E)-6-{1-[(5-Hydroxypentyl)oxy]-2,2-dimethylbut-3-en-1-yl}-5,8- dimethoxynaphthalene-1,4-dione dioxime and (1E,4E)-6-{1-[(6-Hydroxyhexyl)oxy]-2,2-dimethylbut-3-en-1-yl}-5,8-dimethoxynaphthalene-1,4-dione dioxime displayed higher cytotoxicity in three cancer cell lines than the positive drug 5-fluorouracil
