Fluorescent ajoenes as a mechanistic probe for cancer

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This thesis describes the development and synthesis of several novel ajoene mimics. The first of which, (E/Z)-1,8-(Bis-p-methoxyphenyl)-2,3,7-trithia-octa-4-ene 7-oxide 17, was developed as a continuation of SAR studies performed by our group, involved the placing p-methoxyphenly groups on the termini of the ajoene pharmacophore.
