Organo-silicon compoundsOrgano-silicon compounds S 0060 Synthesis and Cytotoxicity of 3-(Hetarylthio)-1-propynyl(trimethyl)silanes. -A novel two-step method for the synthesis of title silanes via phase-transfer catalyzed S-alkylation of corresponding heterocyclic thiols (I) with propargyl bromide followed by a silylation reaction is described. The biological activity of the compounds obtained is studied for two tumor cell lines (HT-1080 and MG-22A). Indole derivative (VII) displays the greatest cytotoxicity. -(ABELE, R.; ABELE, E.; RUBINA, K.; DZENITIS, O.; ARSENYAN, P.; SHESTAKOVA, I.; NESTEROVA, A.; DOMRACHEVA, I.; POPELIS, J.; GRINBERGA, S.; et al.; Chem.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
