Abstract

Methoxy-indolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines 8a-f and their dihydroderivatives
7a-f were synthesized by Bischler-Napieralski reaction of the (bromomethoxyphenyl)-[
2-(methoxyphenyl)-ethyl]acetamides 4a-f, reduction,
subsequent cyclization and dehydrogenation. They were tested for cytostatic
activity in vitro using P388 D1 leukemia and MDA MB 231 mammary
tumor cells. The trimethoxy-5,6-dihydroindoloisoquinoline 7d and the tetramethoxyindoloisoquinoline
8f showed an inhibition of cellproliferation
of about 70 % at a concentration of 10-5 molar.
