New cytotoxic-antineoplastic prenyl-1,2-naphthohydroquinone derivatives.
Several new prenylnaphthohydroquinone derivatives have been prepared through the Diels-Alder condensation between alpha-myrcene and 1,2-benzoquinone and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against A-549, HT-29 and MB-231 cultured cell lines. All of them have shown GI50 values in the microM level.
