We developed novel nucleoside-based topoisomerase II selective inhibitors and showed that small structural units, such as catechols, are essential for DNA topoisomerase II inhibitory activity. Moreover, nucleoside analogues containing TBS and 1,3-dithian moieties had potent and selective DNA topoisomerase II inhibitory activities. In further experiments, compound 25b having a beta configuration of the thymine moiety showed relatively strong growth inhibitory activity against cancer cell lines, and was more potent against all cancer cell lines than compound 26b, which carries a thymine moiety in the alpha configuration.
