Abstract

A series of Combretastatin A-4 analogues were synthesized in order to obtain new compounds with potential antiangiogenic activity. The structures of all synthesized compounds were confirmed by means of spectroscopical analytical techniques. All compounds were evaluated for their antiangiogenic activity by chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay method. The compounds showed significant antiangiogenic activity. Compound 5 showed maximum activity out of all synthesized compounds.
