Synthesis, Characterization and Activity Evaluation of Matrinic Acid Derivatives as Potential Antiproliferative Agents
A series of new matrinic acid derivatives 5a–e was synthesized. The chemical structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. The anti-tumor activities were also investigated in vitro by evaluating the effect of synthesized com...
