Eurotinones, and derivatives thereof, processes for preparing them, and their use

摘要

The present invention relates to novel compounds of the formula I in which R(1), R(2), R(3) and R(4) are, independently of each other, hydrogen or an alkyl radical. The compounds of the formula I are inhibitors of KDR kinase and, due to their antiangiogenic effect, are suitable for preventing and/or treating malignant diseases. The compounds of the formula I can be obtained by fermenting the microorganism Eurotium echinulatum Delacroix (DSM 13872) or by chemically derivatizing the compounds which are obtained after fermenting said microorganism. The invention consequently also relates to a process for preparing the compounds of the formula I, to the use of the compounds of the formula I for preparing a pharmaceutical for treating malignant diseases and diseases which can be treated by inhibiting KDR kinase, and also to pharmaceutical preparations which have a content of at least one compound of the formula I.
