Synthesis of halogensubstituted styryl lactones and their cytotoxic activity against T-jurkat cell line / Nik Salmah Nik Salleh

Styryl lactones are small organic compounds that possess interesting biological properties. A study was done in order to synthesise halogen substituted styryl lactones as only few of these derivatives have been reported. A new synthetic route has been established which consists of three steps only....
