✦ Synopsis
Several new 1,2,5-oxadiazole N-oxide derivatives were synthesized to be tested both as potential selective hypoxic cell cytotoxins and as DNA-binding agents. The compounds prepared included bis(1,2,5-oxadiazole N-oxide) derivatives and oxadiazole rings linked to naphthyl residues. The compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity in oxia and hypoxia and they proved to be non-selective and less active than the parent compounds 3-formyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5-oxadiazole N2-oxide (3) and 3-chloromethyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5-oxadiazole N2-oxide (4). The DNA-affinity assays showed that the compounds tested have poor affinity for this biomolecule.
