  • Patent number: 6903104
    Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that certain 3-oxoacetamideindolyl compounds have potent anticancer and anti-angiogenic activity. The 3-oxoacetamideindolyl compounds are of the following formula. In this formula, each R1 is independently isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl, 1,3-benzothiazolyl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, thionaphthenyl, or benzofuranyl, each being optionally substituted with 1-6 independent R5; or when taken together with R2 and the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 5-8 membered ring comprising C, N, S, or O atoms wherein any atom is optionally substituted with an independent R5. Each R2 is independently H, C1-C10 alkyl, or aryl, each being optionally substituted with 1-4 independent R5; or when taken together with R1 and the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 5-8 membered ring comprising C, N, S, or O atoms wherein any atom is optionally substituted with an independent R5.
