Synthesis and Biological Activity of Nitrilic Derivatives of the Methyl Ester of Maleopimaric Acid

Аннотация

An effective method of a modification of the anhydride ring of the maleopimaric acid methyl ester by means of the cyanoethylation reaction was developed. A primary screening of a cytotoxic activity in vitro demonstrated an ability of the cyanoethyl derivative of the maleopimaric acid methyl ester to induce the death of the PC-3 cells of prostate cancer.
