Abstract

We herein report the synthesis, biological activity and structure activity relationship of derivatives of benzylstyrylsulfone, benzylstyrylsulfine and benzylsulfonyl-N-phenylacetamide. A lead compound 7 represents a new class of mitotic inhibitors that demonstrates potent anti-proliferative activity and selectively induces cancer cell apoptosis while sparing non-transformed lung fibroblast.
