title: Antitumor agents. Part 204: synthesis and biological evaluation of substituted 2-aryl quinazolinones.
abstract: A series of 2',3',4',6,7-substituted 2-aryl quinazolinones were synthesized and evaluated for biological activity. Among them, 17 displayed significant growth inhibitory action against a panel of tumor cell lines. Compound 17 was also a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization. Compounds 8-10 displayed selective activity against P-gp-expressing epidermoid carcinoma of the asopharynx.
