Twenty-one types of ellipticine derivatives [5,11-dimethyl-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazole derivatives] and pyridocarbazole derivatives (5-methoxycarbonyl-11-methyl-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazoles) with a (nitroso)urea group linked by an (oxy)bis[ethylene] unit at the 2-position, were designed and the synthesis of the target compounds was achieved by a multi-step pathway. Their cytotoxicity against HeLa S-3 cells (human uterine cervical carcinoma cell line) was evaluated. The title compounds thus formed included 2,5,11-trimethyl-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazolium chloride and related substances. Some of these new compounds exhibited potent antitumor activity by comparison with that of ellipticine. In the experiment, the researchers used tert-Butyl (2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)carbamate(cas: 139115-91-6Application In Synthesis of tert-Butyl (2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)carbamate)
tert-Butyl (2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)carbamate(cas: 139115-91-6) belongs to ethers.Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon, thus the alpha hydrogens of ethers are more acidic than those of simple hydrocarbons. They are far less acidic than alpha hydrogens of carbonyl groups (such as in ketones or aldehydes), however. Application In Synthesis of tert-Butyl (2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl)carbamate
