The compounds prepared in the examples according to the present invention were tested for pharmacological activities against tumors. Antitumor activities of the compounds were tested in vitro against 5 kinds of human tumor cell lines and 2 kinds of leukemia tumor cell lines. Methods and results of the tests are as follows.
Experimental 1 : In vitro antitumor effect against human tumor cell lines.
A. Tumor cell lines : A549 (human non-small lung cell)
SKOV-3 (human ovariance HCT-15 (human coloncell
XF-498 (human CNScell
cell SKMEL-2 (human melanoma)
cell
B. Method : SRB Assay
a. Human solid tumor cell lines, A549(non-small lung cell),
SKMEL-2(melanoma), HCT-lS(colon), SKOV-3(ovarian) and
XF-498(CNS) were cultured in 5% CO2 incubators using the RPMI 1640
media containing 10% FBS at 37oC, while with transfer-culturing
successively once or twice per week. Cell cultures were dissolved in a
solution of 0.25% trysin and 3 mmol CDTA PBS(-) to separate the cells
sticked on the culture media. 5x10,-2x10 cells were added into each well of 96-well plate and
cultured in 5% C02 incubator at 37 °C for 24 hours.
c. Each sample drug was dissolved in a little DMSO and diluted with the
used medium to a prescribed concentration for experiment, while the final
concentration of DMSO was adjusted below 0.5%.
d. Medium of each well cultured for 24 hours as above b. was removed
by aspiration. Each 200µl of drug samples prepared in c. was added into
each well and the wells were cultured for 48 hours. Tz(time zero) plates
were collected at the point of time drugs were added.
e. According to the 8KB assay method, cell fixing with TCA, staining with 0.4% SUB solution, washing with 1% acetic acid and elution of dye with l0mmol Tris solution were carried out on Tz plates and culture-ended plates, and then, OD values were measured at 520 nm.
C. Calculation of result
a. Time zero(Tz) value was determined with measuring the SRB protein
value at the point of time drugs were added.
b. Control value(C) was determined with the OD value of an well
untreated with drug.
c. Drug-treated test value(T) was determined with the OD value of
drug-treated well.
d. Effects of drugs were estimated with growth stimulation, net growth
inhibition and net killing calculated from Tz, C and T values.
e. If T ≥ Tz, cellular response function was calculated by
l00x(T-Tz)/(C-Tz), and, if T shown in the next table 1.

2) Each sample drug of a concentration diluted in the ratio of log dose
was added into cell culture media and cultured at 37 "C for 48 hours in
50% CO2 incubator, and then viable cell number was measured by dye
exclusion test using trypan blue.

C. Results

As the result of measurement of antitumor activities IC 50 (µg/ml) against P388 mouse cancer cells of the compounds according to the present invention, it was found that the compounds tested have equal to or higher antitumor activities than those of the control drug, mitomycin C.

Experimental 3 ' in vivo antitumor effects against mouse leukemia P388 cells
A. Material of experiment
BDF1 mice were used.
B. Method of experiment
1) Leukemia P388 cells being transfer-cultured successively in DBA/2 mouse, were grafted into each mouse of a group comprising 8 mice of 6
week old BDF1 mouse with the dose of Ixl06cells/0.lml
2) Sample drugs were dissolved in PBS or suspended in 0.5% tween 80,
and then injected into abdominal cavity of mouse at each prescribed
concentration on days 1, 5, 9, respectively.
3) With observation everyday, survival times of tested mice were
measured. Antitumor activities was determined in such a manner that the
increasing ratio(T/C%) of average survival days of drug-treated groups
compared with the control group was calculated using the mean survival
times of each tested groups.
The results are shown at the next table 3.

Experimental 4. Acute toxicity test (LD50) :
a) Method : Litchfield-Wilcoxon method.
6-week-old ICR mice(male 30±2.0g) were fed freely with solid feed and
water at room temperature, 23±oC and at humidity 60A5%. Sample drugs
were injected into the abdominal cavities of mice. Each group comprised 6
mice. Observed during 14 days, external appearances and life or death thereof were recorded, and also, visible lesions were observed from dead mice by dissection. LD50 value was calculated by Litchfield-wilcoxon
method.
b) Results
As shown in the following table, the compounds according to the present
invention are predominantly safe in comparison with cisplatin, whereby
much problems of known compounds such as restriction of dosage,
unfavorable side effects by toxicity, etc. may be overcome considerably.

[Industrial applicability]
As described above, the compounds according to the present invention are much more safer and also have much superior antitumor activities to known anticancer drugs, and accordingly the compounds are expected to be useful as a new anticancer drug.
