Vehicle pollution is an increasing problem in the industrial world. Aromatic nitro compounds
comprise a significant portion of the threat. In this review, the class includes nitro derivatives …

Systemic cytotoxic (anti-proliferative) anticancer drugs rely primarily for their therapeutic
effect on cytokinetic differences between cancer and normal cells. One approach aimed at …

Acridine derivatives are interesting chemotherapeutic agents that were first used as
antibacterial and antiparasite agents. In this review we wish to concentrate our attention on …

Background: The acridine scaffold is of interest since its DNA affinity and intercalative
properties make it an important pharmacophore for the design of antitumor drugs targeting …

New promising unsymmetrical bisacridine derivatives (UAs), have been developed. Three
groups including 36 compounds were synthesized by the condensation of 4-nitro or 4 …

Members of a novel class of anticancer compounds, exhibiting high antitumor activity, ie the
unsymmetrical bisacridines (UAs), consist of two heteroaromatic ring systems. One of the …

Abstract Acridines/acridones, quinolines/quinolones (chromophores) and their derivatives
constitute extremely important family of compounds in current medicine. Great significance …

Xanthones have been isolated from several natural sources, mainly belonging in Guttiferae
and Gentianaceae families as secondary plant metabolites and many of them are endowed …

A series of nitro substituted benzamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their
potential anti-inflammatory activities in vitro. Firstly, all compounds (1–6) were screened for …

A series of MDP (muramyldipeptide) or nor-MDP (normuramyldipeptide) analogues modified
at the C-terminus post of the molecule by a formation of an ester bond between the …
