Synthesis and biological activity of new 2-[(3-aminopropyl)dimethyl-silyl]-5-trialkylgermylfurans

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

New highly cytotoxic 3-aminopropyl derivatives of 2-dimethylsilyl-5-trialkylgermylfuran (IC50 1−3 μg⋅ml−1) have been prepared by hydrosilylation of heterocyclic N-allylamines with the corresponding hydrosilane in the presence of Speier’s catalyst. The influence of the amine structure and alkyl substituent at the germanium atom on the cytotoxicity has been investigated.
