ANTIMITOTIC ELEUTHESIDES

摘要

This invention provides analogs of eleutherobin and the eleuthesides modified at the C-11 position or comprising an epoxide functionality from C-11 to C-12. C-11 to C-12 is an ideal location for conjugating functional moieties to the eleutherobin pharmacophore without significant loss of antimitotic activity. Moieties that may be conjugated at C-11 include those intended to increase the solubility of the pharmacophore, to facilitate drug formulation, or to facilitate in vivo delivery or targeting.
