DC-89 derivatives

Abstract

Novel DC-89 derivatives represented by general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein X represents Cl or Br; R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, CONR.sup.2 R.sup.3 (in which R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 independently represent hydrogen, a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or phenyl group), ##STR2## (in which n represents an integer of 4 to 7), ##STR3## (in which R.sup.4 represents oxygen, N--CH.sub.3 or N--CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 NH.sub.2), ##STR4## (in which R.sup.5 R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 independently represent a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms); and ##STR5## (in which Y represents hydrogen or CO.sub.2 CH.sub.3); provided that when R.sup.1 is hydrogen, CONR.sup.2 R.sup.3 or SiR.sup.5 R.sup.6 R.sup.7, ##STR6## and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have an excellent anti-tumor activity and are expected to be useful as anti-tumor compositions.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
