Abstract: | Some 2-benzylidenecyclohexanones, 2,6-bis(benzylidene)cyclohexanones, and related compounds were evaluated for antitumor and cytotoxic activities; (E)-2-benzylidenecyclohexanone (Ia) was shown to have significant cytotoxic properties and a potent inhibitory effect on yeast mitochondria. After intraperitoneal injection of Ia, unchanged drug and a metabolite, tentatively identified as 2-(p-hydroxybenzyl)cyclohexanol, were found in the urine. No metabolites were found in the feces. Oral administration of Ia afforded three unidentified metabolites in the urine and three unidentified metabolites in the feces. |
