With the aim of diminishing the toxicity of 5-fluorouracil (1) and obtaining biologically active derivatives of 1 suitable for oral administration, α-alkoxyalkyl groups were introduced at the 1-, 3-and 1, 3-positions of 1. Alkoxyalkylation can be effected by four methods : (i) reaction of 1-alkoxyalkyl chloride (2) with 1, (ii) reaction of acetal with 2, 4-bis (trimethylsiloxy)-5-fluoropy-rimidine, (iii) addition reaction of α-unsaturated ether with 1, (iv) aminolysis of 1-alkylthio-carbonyl-3-(1-alkoxyalkyl)-5-fluorouracil. The toxicity of the products was less than that of 1, and some of these compounds showed moderate antitumor activity against L-1210 leukemia.

For the purpose of diminishing the toxicity of 5-fluorouracil (1) and obtaining biologically active derivatives of 1 suitable for oral administration, alkylthiomethyl, alkylsulfinylmethyl, alkylsulfonylmethyl, and acylthiomethyl groups were introduced at the 1- and 3-positions of 1. The antitumor activity of these synthetic compounds was tested against L1210 leukemia in mice. 1-Alkylthiomethyl-5-fluorouracils showed weak antitumor activity at a high dose (300 mg/kg).

Antitumor-active derivatives of 5-fluorouracil were prepared via a new method by introducing an acyloxymethyl group at the 1-, 3-, or 1, 3-position (s). These derivatives were obtained by condensing 1, 3-bis (hydroxymethyl) -5-fluorouracil with various short-/long-chain carboxylic acids or their derivatives, in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and a catalytic amount of N, N-dimethylaminopyridine. Some of the derivatives showed strong antitumor activity against the leukemia L1210 system when administered orally.

Increasing attention is being paid to the possibility of applying cancer chemopreventive agents for individuals at high risk of neoplastic development. For this purpose by natural compounds have practical advantages with regard to availability, suitability for oral application, regulatory approval and mechanisms of action. Candidate substances such as phytochemicals present in foods and their derivatives have been identified by a combination of epidemiological and experimental studies. Plant constituents include vitamin derivatives, phenolic and flavonoid agents, organic sulfur compounds, isothiocyanates, curcumins, fatty acids and d-limonene. Examples of compounds from animals are unsaturated fatty acids and lactoferrin. Recent studies have indicated that mechanisms underlying chemopreventive potential may be combinations of anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, immune-enhancing, and anti-hormone effects, with modification of drug-metabolizing enzymes, influence on the cell cycle and cell differentiation, induction of apoptosis and suppression of proliferation and angiogenesis playing roles in the initiation and secondary modification stages of neoplastic development. Accordingly, natural agents are advantageous for application to humans because of their combined mild mechanism. Here we review naturally occurring compounds useful for cancer chemprevention based on in vivo studies with reference to their structures, sources and mechanisms of action.
