Design, synthesis, chemical and biological evaluation of brain targeted alkylating agent using reversible redox prodrug approach

The aim of the present work is to investigate the utility of redox chemical delivery prodrug approach for the targeted and sustained release of an alkylating anticancer agent in the brain. The N-methyl-1,4-dihydronicotinate ester of an alkylating nitrogen mustard NM-CDS (4) was synthesized in three...
