Abstract: | Nimbolide (1), a limonoid isolated from Azadirachta indica, is the chief cytotoxic principle in Neem leaves extract. Using nimbolide as a lead compound for anti-cancer analogue design, a series of nimbolide derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro cytotoxic activity against a panel of human cancer cell lines. Out of 10 compounds screened 2g, 2h and 2i showed potent activity. |
