Most compounds which contain a di-2-chloroethyl amino group
possessing a certain level of chemical reactivity and a number of
substituted triazeno derivatives are cytotoxic to proliferating tissues
5'
6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 13However a number of such compounds have limited use as
che-motherapeutic agents because of the lack of specific action on
malig-nant growths, also many normal proliferating tissues are equally
affected by most of the derivatives.
It was shown by D A N I E L L I (Nature 170, 863, 1952) that the
cells may be highly selective in the types of molecule which they
con-cantrate within their plasma membranes. Following this many
aut-hors tried to incorporate the di-2-choloroethyl amino group into
molecules of different physical and chemical properties varying in
their anionic, cationic, liphophilic and hydrophilic character as
well as trying to have different structures permitting the chlorine atom
to hydrolize in different rates
6- Manv others have tried to
incorpo-rate triazeno moiety into suitable carrier molecules and some others
have tried to combine triazeno structure with di-2-chloro ethyl
moietv to increase the activity

* This work is the first of a series of research with triazene derivatives. ** Farmasötik K i m y a Kürsüsü, Eczacılık Fakültesi, Ankara Üniversitesi
Besides the compounds such as Nitrogen Mustard (NSC- 762),
Cyclophosphamide (NSC-26271), Melphalan (NSC-8806),
Chlo-rambucil (NSC- 3088) Imidazole Mustard (NSC- 82196), B C N U
(NSC-409962), C C N U (NSC-79037), many others have been prepared
and tried for antitumor activity among which only the ones carrying
either sulfamide structure or triazenc structure concern the present
research.
Triazeno derivatives of various ring systems such as substituted
imidazoles
1 3 ,and pyrazoles
1 8both carrying either carboxamide or
carboxilic acid groups have been synthesized and a number of these
have displayed antineoplastic activity among which Imidazole
Mus-tard (NSC - 82196) has been clinically accepted. E L K S and H E Y
5have prepared a number of l-aryl-3,3-dimethyl triazenes from
aniline, m - a n d p-nitro aniline, anthranilic acid, methyl anthranilate
2-naphtylamine,4-amino phtalimide, methyl-4-amino phtalate
and 5amino quinoline. L E C O C Q , has synthesized some c o m
pounds of the type sulfanilic acid and thioanisidine, carrying d i 2
choloroethyl amino function at the para position and also p d i
-N, N-2-chloroethyl or hydroxy ethyl sulfamoil aniline. The
anti-bacterial activity of these compounds were found inferior than that of
sulfanilamide. The analogues of the latter compound have also been
been prepared by Ross and Wilson
1 1replacing the p-amino function
with various groups. Again by replacing p- amino function by several
others Boucherle et al
2and Di M o d i c a and Angeletti
4have prepared
several sulfonic and sulfanilic acid derivatives. Benn et al.
1have
pre-pared derivatives of p-di-2-chloroethyl amino substituted sulfanilic
acid esters and sulfonamides. Pearison, Holland and M i d g e t
1 0using
the method of Elks and Hey, have synthesized some triazeno
deriva-tives of sulphanilamide carrying 3,3-di(2— hydroxyethyl), diethyl,
cyclopentyl, piperidine, ethoxyethyl, morpholino groups and also
triazeno derivatives of sulfadiazine carrying diethyl and cyclopentyl
groups. Then assayed the antibacterial activities of these compounds
coming to the conclusion that the antibacterial affect is slight in c o m
-parison with sulfanilamide.
Considering that the antineoplastic activity- is born by the
subs-tituted triazeno groups but heterocyclic moiety provides the molecules

with the fact that either amide or ester moiety increases the
antileu-kemic activity when tested in standard mouse L-1210 leukemia assay,
it has been though to incorporate triazeno group into some suitable
molecule which has already been proved to involve in metabolic
processes. Since sulfonamides posses the amide moiety and have been
proved to involve in metabolic processes with little toxic side effects
they meet the requirements mentioned above. Additionally Ross et
al.
3have shown that sulfonamides deposit selectively in the neoplastic
tissues because the pH of such tissues is lower then most of the normal
tissues due to the high rate production of lactic acid from glucose under
under aerobic conditions
3 e t r c f . | o c . c i t .After all the considerations mentioned above, one of the
sulfo-namides, sulfaguanidine was selected as a carrier for substituted
tria-zeno group.
The compounds synthesized are tabulated in Table. I along with
their melting points.

2 N = N - N N H S O2- N H - C - N H2Generally the triazeno derivatives of sulfaguanidine are highly
insoluble products both in polar and nonpolar solvents but sparingly
soluble in ethanol. They are insoluble in aqueous sodium carbonate
but but soluble in aqueous sodium hydroxide developing a brown color.
They are also soluble in acid medium giving a dark color, but nmr
spectrum taken in trifluoroacetic acid has shown decomposition of
the structure and loss of alkyl groups situated at the 3 position of
triazeno moiety. In the ir spectra of triazeno sulfaguanidines there
are two sets of bands. A set of them are steady in all spectra but
characteristic of sulfamide structure and the other set of bands are
characteristic of triazene structure. These bands are listed in Table.II.

7 3 0 — 7 4 0 a small spike or a dent 6 5 0 — a spike, a fork or a triple band
The UV spectra of the compounds synthesized are very similar.
Generally the bands shift very slightly. The values of the bands are:
208-210 nm the bands shift very slightly. The values of the bands
are: 2 0 8 - 210 max., 226-228 nm min., 236-250 nm max., 268-278
nm min., 350-366 nm max. The tlc of all the derivatives on Silicagel
plates with n-Bu O H : A c O H : Wa ( 5 : 2: 3) allways gave one spot
having an Rf value of about 0.50 - 0.66. M a n y of these compounds
are being biologically tested. The results are to be published later.

All the solvents used were technical grade except those used
for recystallization and spectrometry for which only analytical grade
and spectral grade solvents were used. Melting points have been taken
with a Mettler FP - 5 instrument. All melting points are uncorrected.
UV spectra were taken with a Pye-Unicam SP - 1700 instrument
and ır spectra were taken with a Pye - Unicam SP-1100 instrument,
nmr spectra were taken with a Perkin Elmer R 32, 90 M H z instrument.
For the synthesis of all the derivatives basicly the same ractions have
been applied.
General Method:
Reaction A- In a 1 It flask 40.00 g (0.187 Mol) Sulfaguanidine
was dissolved in 170 ml (conc.) HC1 , to this solution 400 ml water
was added. The flask was kept in an ice-bath. When the inner
tem-perature lowered to 0-5°C sodium nitrite solution (13 g / 50 ml in
water and cooled to 0°C) was added dropwise. This addition was
car-ried on till it gave reaction with the KI-starch paper.
Reaction B- When the diazotization reaction was over, 0.3 M o l
of the amine derivative which was dissolved in the mininum quantity
of water and cooled to 0°C was added to this mixture for the
coup-ling reaction. The product which precipitated was filtered and washed
with cold water. During the entire reaction the temperature was
kept below 5°C. When possible, the product was recrystallized from
ethanol/water and dried in vacuum over sulphuric acid.

One of the major problems in cancer chemotherapy is the
diffi-culty of finding a compound that acts differentially on the cancer
tissues but not on normal proliferating tissues. In order to realize such
a discrimination it was thought to benefit from the differences
bet-ween normal and neoplastic tissues considering their biochemical
properties, particularly the p H . The fundamental metabolic property
of all cancer cells is the production of lactic acid from glucose under
aerobic conditions. Consequently the pH of neoplastic tissues has a
lower value than most of normal tissues. Therefore one of the ways
in which this lower pH of tumour tissue can be exploited is to utilize
this property to accumulate an effective carcinostatic chemical gruop
via a carrier of suitable PKa value.
In this research,expecting a favorable carcinostatic activity,
sulfaguanidine molecule has been chosen as carrier and substituted
triazeno group has been chosen as carcinostatic moiety and they were
incorporated.
S U M M A R Y
One of the major biochemical property of neoplastic tissues is
their low pH value. This property has been taken into consideration
to incorporate a well known carcinostatic group, substituted triazeno
moiety onto a suitable carrier, sulfaguanidine.
By substitution of triazeno moiety fourteen different molecules
have been synthetized. All of the compounds have been characterized
by their melting points, Rf value, uv, ir and nmr spectra.
These compounds are being tested for antineoplastic activity,
the data are to be published later.
