ABSTRACT:
Three new non-polyglutamatable glutamic acid derivatives in the antifolate series are provided as well as procedures for their preparation. These compounds are: 4-amino-4-deoxy-10-deazapteroyl-.tau.-methyleneglutamic acid (1); 4-amino-4-deoxy-10-ethyl-10-deazapteroyl-.tau.-methylene-glutamic acid (2); and 4-amino-4-deoxy-10-deazapteroyl-3-hydroxyglutamic acid (3). None of the compound undergo polyglutamylation as determined by their inability to serve as substrates for folylpolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS). Compounds 1 and 2 are transported more effectively to tumor cells and they are more powerful in inhibiting the growth of human leukemia cells in culture as compared to the standard anticancer drug methotrexate. All three compounds (1, 2, and 3) inhibit human dihydrofolate reductase to the same extent as methotrexate.
