Developing an Amide-Spacered Triterpenoid Rhodamine Hybrid of Nano-Molar Cytotoxicity Combined with Excellent Tumor Cell/Non-Tumor Cell Selectivity

Asiatic acid, a pentacyclic triterpene, was converted into a series of piperazinyl, homopiperazinyl, and 1,5-diazocinyl spacered rhodamine conjugates, differing in the type of spacer and the substitution pattern on the rhodamine moiety of the hybrids. The compounds were tested for cytotoxic activity...
