Synthesis, characterization, and antitumor evaluation of 4-aminoximidofurazan derivatives

<p>Reactions of 3-amino-4-aminoximidofurazan (AAOF) with Wittig–Horner reagents, trialkylphosphites, trisdialkylaminophosphines as well as the thiating Lawesson and Japanese reagents were studied. Elemental analysis and spectroscopic measurements were in good accord with the structures postulated for the new products. The antitumor activities of certain selected new compounds were screened, <i>in vitro</i>, against a panel of five (liver; HepG2; breast; MCF-7; lung; A549; colon; HCT116; and prostate PC3) human solid tumor cell lines.</p> <p></p
