Abstract

A number of FTY720-derived compounds with antitumor activity are described. These compounds include the compounds of formula I:wherein R1 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, methyl. methoxy, and hydroxyl; R2 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, methoxy, and hydroxyl; R3 is independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl and cyclo-alkyl; and n is independently selected from 0 to 6. The compounds have lower immunosuppressive side effects as a result of not being phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase 2.
