where R is C 1 -C 10 alkyl or haloalkyl;
R′ and R″ are each independently C 1 -C 10 alkyl;
R 1 is CH 3 ; and
X is O;
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or enantiomer, thereof.
2. The compound according to claim 1 wherein R is CH 3 , CH 2 CH 3 or a C 2 -C 3 haloalkyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or enantiomer thereof.
3. The compound according to claim 1 wherein R′ and R″ are C 1 -C 3 alkyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or enantiomer thereof.
4. The compound according to claim 1 wherein R is a CH 2 CH 2 Cl group and R′ and R″ are CH 3 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or enantiomer there of.
5. The compound according to claim 4 according to the chemical structure:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
6. The compound according to claim 4 according to the chemical structure:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
7. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound according to claim 1 in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive or excipient thereof.
8. A pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-cancer effective amount of a compound according to claim 2 in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive or excipient thereof.
9. pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-cancer effective amount of a compound according to claim 3 in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive or excipient thereof.
10. A pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-cancer effective amount of a compound according to claim 4 in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive or excipient thereof.
11. A compound having the chemical structure:
