It was found that 14c, 14d, 14f, 14i, 14j and 14k showed more potent cytotoxic activities than control 5-fluorouracil. NO release assay of target compounds indicated that the maximum amount of NO released by most active compounds 14c and 14j was about 6 × 10^-2 μmol/L, whereas 14a and 14h with very weak activity only released NO of 1 × 10^-2 μmol/L.展开更多
