Structural analogues of β-diketones – dimethyl-N-(benzoyl)amidophosphate (HCP) and dimethyl-N-(phenylsulfonyl)amidophosphate (HSP) were synthesized and identified by the methods of IR, 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. Screening of biological activity and calculation of physicochemical parameters of HCP and HSP compounds were done with the use of PASS and ACD/Labs computer programs. A wide range of biological activity of synthesized compounds, antitumor activity in particular, has been found. Calculations of the bioavailability criteria indicate that the investigated compounds have no deviations from Lipinski’s rules. HCP compound is characterized by a high lipophilicity at physiological pH as compared to HSP. It was found that cytotoxic effect of the studied compounds on the leukemiс L1210 cells was of time- and dose-dependent character. HCP is characterized by more pronounced and early cytotoxic effects as compared to HSP. It was shown that 2.5 mM HCP increased ROS production 3 times in the early period of incubation, and decreased cell viability by 40% after 48 h, and by 66% – after 72 h. Based on the computer calculation and undertaken research, HCP was selected for target chemical modifications and enhancement of its antitumor effect.
