Some Mannich bases of Antineoplaston A10 which is antitumor agent under chlinical investigation were synthesized and tested fro cytotoxicity. The tested compounds (2a, 2b, 2d) showed good activity comparable to that of carboplatin.

Some analogs and their Mannich bases of Antineoplaston A10 (A10) were synthesized. Chemical yield for the 2-(or 3-)thienyl, benzol, and phenylpropionyl analogs were high but 1-naphthyl analog was synthesized in low yield. The Mannich bases formation of these analogs with morpholine went verywell compared to other bases. 1-Naphthyl, 4-nitrobenzoyl, and phenylpropionyl analogs of A10 showed weak in vitro activity but the other A10 analogs showed weaker or no activity at 10-1000mcg/ml. But their Mannich bases containing A10analogs showed good in vitro activity compared to simple A10 analogs.
