Synthesis and antitumor activity of 4-[p-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phenyl]butyrates.
Ten 4-[p-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phenyl]butyrates were synthesized and evaluated for antitumor activity. The 2-phenoxyethyl ester exhibited activity against P-388 lymphocytic leukemia, and the n-butyl and n-pentyl esters exhibited activity against L-1210 lymphoid leukemia in initial screening tests.
