Abstract
A new series of functionalized amino acid derivatives N-substituted 1-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-5-oxazolidine carboxamide (1-17) and 1-N-substituted-3-amino-2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropane-1-carboxamide (18-34) were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines. Compound 6 has shown interesting cytotoxicity (IC50 = 5.67 μm) in ovarian cancer, while compound 10 exhibited promising cytotoxicity in ovarian (IC50 = 6.1 μm) and oral (IC50 = 4.17 μm) cancers. These compounds could be of use in designing new anti-cancer agents.
