Abstract
A series of 24-membered macrocyclic hexaoxazoles containing one or two aminoalkyl substituents was synthesized and evaluated for cytotoxicity and for their ability to selectively stabilize G-quadruplex DNA and RNA. The most cytotoxic analog 4a, with IC50 values of 25 and 130 nM using KB3-1 and RPMI 8402 cells, is efficacious in vivo in athymic nude mice with a human tumor xenograft from the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-435.
