Crystal structures of 3-methyl-1,2,4-benzotriazine 1-oxide and 2-oxide

The compound 3-methyl 1,2,4-benzotriazine 1,4-dioxide (1) belongs to a new class of clinically promising, bioreductively-activated antitumor drugs. Reductive metabolism of these triazine di-N-oxides typically produces mixtures of mono-N-oxide analogues. As part of our efforts toward characterization of the in vitro metabolism of 1, we synthesized the 1-oxide (2) and 2-oxide (3) analogues and characterized these compounds using X-ray crystallography.
