摘要

The present invention provides compounds of formula (I): in which T is L or -A-NH-C(O)-L-; L is -(CH2)n- or -(CH2)p-Z-; A is -(CH2)m- or an alkyl component of a naturally occurring amino acid; R is -CO2R1, -CH2OH, -C(O)NH(hydroxyphenyl) or C(S)NH(hydroxyphenyl); R1 is H or is C1-C12 alkyl; X is -OH, OSO2R2, -Cl, -Br, or -I; R2 is C1-C12 alkyl or -CF3; Z is phenyl or naphthyl; m is an integer having a value of 1 to 20; n is an integer having a value of 1 to 20; and p is an integer having a value of 1 to 20 or an enantiomer, diastereoisomer, racemic mixture, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or prodrug thereof. These compounds can be useful as anticancer agents.
