Abstract

Purine inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases attract attention as potential Anticancer drugs because their first representative roscovitine recently entered clinical trials. Although well described in terms of structure-activity relationships, we still present here a novel modification of the purine scaffold influencing their inhibitory properties. The introduced C-8 substituents, however, lowered the CDK inhibitory activity of roscovitine, whereas the antiproliferative potential of several derivatives remained high.
