Abstract
The synthesis of cis- and trans-tetrahydrodipyrazino[1,2-a:2'',1''-c]pyrazine-1,3,10,12(2H,4H,9H,11H)-tetrone from pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxamide is described. Stereoselective antimetastatic activity differences for these analogs were observed following pretreatment of B16-F10 melanoma cells in vitro. Activities for these isomers were compared with selected intermediates, and the data are discussed in relation to previous results obtained with cis- and trans-cyclopropane analogs.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
